It’s time to sign up for an unforgettable trip to New Orleans for the 2025 National Youth Gathering! Every three years, thousands of high school students come together for this powerful event hosted by The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, which has been supporting and affirming young people through Youth Gatherings for over 40 years.
The 2025 Gathering’s theme is ENDURE, inspired by Hebrews 12:1-3. This theme invites us to explore how, as God’s people, we can persevere and remain steadfast in faith through life’s challenges.
From July 19-23, tens of thousands of youth (grades 9-12) will join in NOLA for an incredible experience. Highlights include concerts, Bible studies, mission projects both on and off-site, and plenty of entertainment—all designed to create memories that will last a lifetime while growing deeper in faith and fellowship.
Registration is now open through October 30th. The cost for parents is $500 per student, with a $150 deposit required to secure your spot by October 30th. Late registrations will be accepted after this date but will incur additional fees. If you’re registering more than one student, the second will receive a discount. Need financial assistance? Scholarships are available and handled confidentially—just reach out to Beth Hixon or Brittany Cliff. Our goal is for all our high school youth to attend!
You can download the registration form below, or pick up a hard copy outside the Activity Center. Let’s make this trip to NOLA a life-changing experience for our youth!
