About the 2012 ELCA Youth Gathering

The 2012 ELCA Youth Gathering takes place July 18–22. It is built around three core practices in which young people will be immersed while they are attending the Gathering, and again, in the communities of their congregations and synods when they return home.

The core practices Discipleship, Peacemaking and Justice serve to accentuate God’s greatest commandment: to love the Lord our God and our neighbor as ourselves (Matthew 22:34–40).

Participants visit New Orleans to dwell together as “one new humanity,” remembering who we are in Christ and acting in response by forming faithful, wise and courageous leaders who will:

  • Live among God’s faithful people,
  • Hear the word of God and share in the Lord’s supper,
  • Proclaim the good news of God in Christ through words and deed,
  • Serve all people, following the example of Jesus,
  • Strive for justice and peace in all the earth (ELW, page 236).
