Announcing
the 2012 Connections
Mission Trip to New Orleans Next summer's trip for high school youth will be to the 2012 ELCA Youth Gathering in New Orleans from Tuesday, July 17th until Monday, July 23rd! The Gathering's theme for 2012 is Citizens with the Saints, with a focus on Ephesians 2:14 - 20. Youth and adults who participate will again be immersed in worship, music, Bible study, service, learning, play, prayer, the witness of faithful leaders from around the world, reflection, caring for others, and new friendships during this experience. We look forward to joining with 37,000+ other Lutheran youth for this much-anticipated triennial event, and we hope you'll consider joining us!
