ELCA Elects New Head of Denomination

The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) has elected Yehiel Curry to become the new presiding Bishop of the denomination, taking over from the departing Elizabeth Eaton.

Curry won the nomination at the 2025 ELCA Churchwide Assembly on the fifth ballot, winning 562 of a potential 799 votes, and will now serve a six-year term. He is the first black presiding Bishop and only the fifth bishop in the young denomination’s history.

Prior to his appointment, he served as a pastor, mission developer, and, most recently, as the Bishop of the ELCA Metropolitan Chicago Synod since 2019.
