Church of Ireland General Synod

May 4, 2022 - May 7, 2022

The Church of Ireland General Synod’s 2022 meeting will take place from Wednesday May 4 to Friday May 6 in Assembly Buildings, Belfast. 

This will be the second meeting of the 52nd General Synod, and the venue will facilitate the first in-person meeting of General Synod since 2019 when it met in Derry/Londonderry.

The General Synod consists of a House of Bishops with 11 members and a House of Representatives, which currently has a membership of 648 – 216 clerical members and 432 lay members who are elected by the diocesan synods and who hold office for a three-year period.

The primary purpose of the Synod is to enact legislation for the whole Church of Ireland.  Less formal proposals are submitted as motions which, if approved, become resolutions. The Synod also receives reports from various committees and boards, which are debated by the members.

More information on the 2022 General Synod, including details for media accreditation, will be made available nearer to the time of the meeting at this link.
