Before You Register

IMAGINE - Synod Assembly 2026

(especially for those registering several people)

  • 1

    Registering on Behalf of Others

    If you are registering others but NOT yourself, please use the name and email address of one of the persons you are registering.

  • 2

    Email Address Requirements

    Have a separate/individual email for each voting member. Necessary information will not reach someone if we don’t have their email.

  • 3

    How to Enter Names Correctly

    Register each person using first and last name only, no prefixes.

    • Please do not include titles such as Rev., Pr., or Deacon. This helps us avoid duplicate or unclear entries (for example, multiple “Rev. Jones”). If a title is entered, the system will format it automatically (e.g., “Rev. Jones”), and we are not able to edit it afterward.
    • Lay members again no need for prefixes.

    If you are unable to pay with a credit card, debit card, or ACH payment you will need to call into the office to register. Your check will need to be received in the Synod office by 4:30 pm May 1. No payment will be accepted at the assembly
