Weekly E-News

Our weekly e-news is the best way to get the latest official news and event information from the synod office. We especially encourage pastors, deacons and lay leaders from Greater Milwaukee Synod congregations to sign up!

Google Groups

If you’re a Greater Milwaukee Synod congregation or partner ministry, the best way to share announcements or ask a question to others in our synod is by using a Google Group email list and online discussion board.

Troubleshooting / FAQ's

How do I post? Once you’re a member of the group, you can make a post at groups.google.com/g/gmsynod or by sending an email to gmsynod@googlegroups.com. Be sure to send the email from the same one you signed up with.

I’m having problems posting.

Try these troubleshooting steps…

  • Have you signed up for the Google Group? If not, do so now using the steps outlined above. Only members can post to the Google Group.
  • If you’re posting via email, did you use the email address you signed up with? You need to send your post from the exact email address you signed up with. For this reason, we advise not signing up using an email alias.
  • Did you email the correct address? Double check to make sure your email is addressed to gmsynod@googlegroups.com.
  • I’m still not seeing my post! If you post by email, you will not get a copy of your email unless you copy yourself. If you still have questions please email robyn@milwaukeesynod.org, and we’ll help sort things out.

Can I change how often I receive postings?

By default, you’ll receive a separate email for every post, which is usually several times per day. If you’d instead like to receive a daily summary email, go to groups.google.com/g/gmsynod and do the following:

  • Click “My membership settings” on the left sidebar.
  • Select an option from the dropdown menu below “Subscription.”
  • Click “Save changes.”
