2024 Youth Gathering
The 2024 Youth Gathering
New Orleans, July 16-20, 2024

Youth currently in 7^th grade through 11^th grade are eligible. An email has gone out to families with eligible youth. If you did not receive an email, please reach out to Sandy Baber.

Registration for the Gathering starts this September. For budget planning we would like to know who is going from St Paul’s by September 1^st. As part of the registration process we will request our hotel rooms and then we will make airline reservations near the end of the year. Final payment for everything will be due in April 2024. The plan would be to fly to New Orleans on Monday, July 15th and return late on Saturday, July 20^th. Once we get to New Orleans, all events should be within walking distance, if not the Gathering will provide transportation. To give you an idea of our time in New Orleans, our days are spent in interactive learning, worship, Bible study, service and fellowship, as our youth grow in faith and are challenged and inspired to live their faith in their daily lives.

If you have interested youth, a non-refundable deposit of $150 is due by September 1^st.  Because of our on-going fundraising efforts and generous friends of St Paul’s, this should be the only out of pocket for each St Paul’s participant. The cost per person is approximately $1,200 per person. If you have any questions, please reach out to Sandy.
