THE MICHIGAN DISTRICT, LCMS, JUNIOR HIGH YOUTH GATHERING
Together. As followers of Jesus, it’s important to gather around God’s Word, love all people, serve those in our lives, and encourage our fellow followers to walk in God’s grace and light.

YOUTH CURRENTLY in 8th-11th GRADE
Peace is sending a group of youth to the Gathering in New Orleans, LA! Eligible youth are those currently who will graduate high school between 2025-2029 (Current 8th-12th Grade).
You do not need to be a member of Peace to go to the Gathering. Please invite anyone you think would be interested to this meeting.
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.
​
The Gathering is more than the five days of the event. The preparation process for the Gathering brings together young people and supportive adults to encourage each other by spending time together in God’s Word, worship, service and fellowship with others from across the synod. The Gathering provides young people a vision for the vastness of Christ’s Church and equips them for vocational service as they continue their walk with Jesus.

Join us In-Person each Sunday morning during our 10:30am service following the Children's Message.
Spiritual transformation happens when kids come to know Jesus, rather than just know about Jesus. Our job is to prepare the soil of kids’ hearts so seeds of faith can grow and a true relationship with Jesus can happen. Every activity, song, and visual in Simply Loved is designed to help kids remember each lesson long after their children’s ministry years.
