The biggest event put on by LCMS Youth Ministry is the LCMS Youth Gathering. Held every 3 years since 1980, the LCMS Youth Gathering provides thousands of youth and adults the opportunity to come together as a community of God’s people to be encouraged in their walk with Jesus Christ and learn about the Christian faith and their Lutheran identity. Join the staff in talking about the five days of the Gathering a beyond. Also hear about our next Gathering as youth and adults from all 35 districts will join together in New Orleans from July 19-23, 2025 for the 16th triennial LCMS Youth Gathering. The theme for the 2025 LCMS Youth Gathering is ENDURE and is based on Hebrews 12:1-3.

Where is God’s mission? God’s mission is everywhere. Yes, it’s far away. But it’s also very near. As near as your congregation and school, your neighborhood, your family and friends, even as near as your home. Wherever you are, God’s mission is in that place. Through His mission, Christ is bringing forgiveness, life, and salvation to people everywhere. Even here. Right where you are. God’s Mission Here. Learn more at lcms.org/nationalmission.
