Youth input needed for new pastor

We hope students will take time to send a quick email about what they are looking for in a new pastor. Members on the search committee have specifically asked that you reply - anything helps! What should our new pastor be like? Email responses to youth@gloriadeistpaul.org



Summer Specifics

We are announcing an early registration deadline to the ELCA National Youth Gathering in New Orleans, July 16-20, 2024. More details to come! Bookmark Oct. 1 for a cut off and watch your emails for details on how to register.

Our team going to Asheville on the summer service learning road trip are bringing household supplies to help people moving into their first apartments after experiencing a time of homelessness. We need your help collecting donations for this effort. Stuff like bed sheets, pillows, brooms, laundry baskets, pots and pans, etc. Sign up here!

Anyone age 5 and older is invited to serve together at Feed My Starving Children in Eagan. We will help pack food bags that will be shipped all around the world. Children should be accompanied by an adult. This event is free but consider bringing a donation for Feed My Starving Children. You can help pay for a child to eat for a year for $88.
