2025 Youth Gathering
Should I go to the gathering?
Yes, we think you should! Why? During the 5 days of the Gathering, youth spend time together in God’s Word, worship, service and fellowship with others from across the synod. You get to gather with friends, make new friends, explore, learn and grow.
Official Gathering Dates are July 19-23 We will most likely travel 1-2 days early.
