Bylaw 2.501 provides for the direct nomination of
candidates for the Office of President by congregations of
Synod. Each congregation has the opportunity of placing
two names in nominations and sending them to the

opening date of the convention. The secretary shall report
to the convention by means of the convention manual the
names of the candidates for the office of president.
Bylaw 2.503 specifies that the candidates for the Office of
