New England Synod

The New England Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) is a jurisdictional synod (similar to a diocese in the Roman Catholic or Episcopal churches), consisting of all of the New England states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont), as well as the Lake Champlain area of eastern New York state. It is one of the 65 synods of the ELCA in North America.

The ELCA is divided into larger geographical units, called Regions. The New England Synod sits within Region 7, that of the Northeastern United States.

The synod has its offices in Worcester, Massachusetts at 20 Upland Street.

Bishop Jim Hazelwood is currently serving his first term as Bishop of the New England Synod.
