General Synod

Every three years, General Synod brings together faithful members of the United Church of Christ for inspirational worship, fellowship with friends (old and new), and public witness including through engagement with the business of the church.

In July 2025, we welcomed thousands from across the country for General Synod 35 in Kansas City, Missouri. In July 2028, we will gather for General Synod 36 in Cleveland, Ohio, the birthplace of our denomination. More information about General Synod 36 will be posted as it becomes available.

General Synod 36 – July 21-25, 2028

Location: Cleveland, OH

This homecoming will mark the fifth time Cleveland has hosted a General Synod and the first of the new triennial system, with previous gatherings in 2015, 1987, 1960, and 1957, the first Synod after the UCC was formed.
