July 16-20, 2024: ELCA Youth Gathering & Young Adult Gathering
New Orleans, LA

The ELCA Youth Gathering is for high school-age youth (those currently in 8th-12th grades) and takes place every three years.  It’s about faith formation, worship, fellowship, service and play.

​

The Gathering is a wonderful an opportunity for youth to engage in worship and fellowship with peers from across the United States and the world who share a common commitment and faith in Christ.

“Our synod office is located on land which is part of the traditional territory of the Lenni-Lenape, called “Lenapehoking.” The Lenape People lived in harmony with one another upon this territory for thousands of years. During the colonial era and early federal period, many were removed west and north, but some also remain among the continuing historical tribal communities of the region: The Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation; the Ramapough Lenape Nation; and the Powhatan Renape Nation, The Nanticoke of Millsboro Delaware, and the Lenape of Cheswold Delaware. We acknowledge the Lenni-Lenape as the original people of this land and their continuing relationship with their territory. In our acknowledgment of the continued presence of Lenape people in their homeland, we affirm the aspiration of the great Lenape Chief Tamanend, that there be harmony between the indigenous people of this land and the descendants of the immigrants to this land, “as long as the rivers and creeks flow, and the sun, moon, and stars shine.”
