Nebraska Synod ELCA
Event
Kick off your youth ministry year with the Nebraska Synod. Join us in person for food, fellowship, Bible Study, and conversation at American Lutheran in Lincoln (4200 Vine St.). *Or, gather with other youth groups near you or as your own youth group and share in a meal. Then, tune in online for Bible Study and conversation and to start thinking about leadership and how you will let your light shine.
What does it mean to be a disciple? How is our faith reflected in our daily lives and through our values, our decision making and the ways we use our gifts?
Join Deacon Coco Lyons from the Lutheran Student Center at UNL to explore stories of everyday disciples. Get a taste of upcoming programs and think about how you are called to dig deeper into your gifts. Where does the world need you and how will you lead?
