The priority deadline to apply online is June 15. Elections will take place at the 82nd General Convention in Phoenix, Arizona, July 3-8, 2027.
While applications will be accepted up to July 15, those received by the June 15 priority deadline will receive preferential review and consideration by the committee. Applications—which should be submitted electronically—will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
The application form will help potential nominees discern whether they may be called to enter the application process. The process includes descriptions of each position and the unique gifts and skills sought for that role; the nomination process timeline; shared commitments and norms expected of leaders; and the church’s commitment to elected leaders.
