Jesus Justice Jazz

JESUS JUSTICE JAZZ is the theme for the 2009 ELCA Youth Gathering, to be held July 22-26, 2009, in New Orleans.

This theme draws from the rich faith history, diverse cultures, and arts of New Orleans. The focus will be on service and justice: Exploring what makes the city of New Orleans unique and seeking to understand the changes it is going through as the entire Gulf Coast region continues to recover from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Youth and adults will 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.

The 2009 ELCA Youth Gathering registration brochure has been mailed to every ELCA congregation. PDF versions (color or black and white) are available on the Gathering website. Registration opens September 15, 2008; it will be done through an online process.

Be sure to visit the Gathering website often and explore the links to see what new information is posted or changing.
