Worshipping together in New Orleans




Today's guest blogger is Emily Magnuson from Immanuel Lutheran Church. Emily went with Chautauqua Area Lutheran Youth to the Youth Gathering in New Orleans this July.

The most moving thing about the Youth Gathering was seeing all of the youth all together in the Superdome. There were around 33,310 people. It was amazing to see all of the youth that came from all around the world. It changed me to hear all of the people singing, worshiping and having communion. I was most suprised about all of the people that wanted to help clean New Orleans. We want it to have a safe envirorment for everyone that is living there and for all of the people that go there for vacations.

Chautauqua Area Lutheran Youth gratefully acknowledges the support of the Karl Peterson Funds & Lynn Foundation Fund of the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation in making this project a reality.
