Since the formation of the ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) -- coincidentally the only merger of Lutheran churches; most are schisms -- there has been a national youth gathering every three years. Bethel has sent participants to all of the following
1988 - San Antonio
1991 - Dallas
1994 - Atlanta
1997 - New Orleans
2000 - St. Louis
2003 - San Antonio
2006 - Atlanta
The next Gathering is in July 2009 and will be held in New Orleans.
One hope of this blog is to host archives of photos and other memories of those Gatherings.
