Southwestern Texas Synod
Welcome to the Southwestern Texas Synod's Soul Cafe group page (formerly known as Congregation Connections). We want to connect fellow disciples with one another and with helpful resources. If you have resources you would like to share, please feel free to add them to this community by clicking "add document". Start a discussion, or join one! There are discussions happening in our synod (click the discussion tab above) and across SoulCafe (search by keyword in the search bar above) Can't find something you're looking for? Contact our SWT Online Community Manager.
Our congregations are organized into 8 Conferences -- join the one you're in! Want to see an interactive map of the synod, by conference? Click here. Thanks for doing this, Derek Mergele!
We also have 3 ministry teams, made up of lay and rostered leaders, to help us fulfill our synod focus:
