2009 ELCA Youth Gathering

March 23, 2009

Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus

Based on Philippians 2:1-8, the 2009 ELCA Youth Gathering will look and feel like a servant school. At the center of the Gathering program is a deepening of our awareness of God’s call to servanthood, and a deepening of the basic Christian practices by which we live our baptismal calling to servanthood throughout life.

Programming for the Gathering will follow a gospel-centered service learning model that includes intentional preparation, action, reflection and celebration.

Go to the Gathering Theme & Program page to learn more about this summer ‘09 youth ministry service opportunity. We hope you’ll join us in New Orleans with thousands of other young Lutheran youth — children of God called to serve with compassion, energy and excitement!
