Through days spent in interactive learning, worship, Bible study, service and fellowship, young people grow in faith and are challenged and inspired to live their faith in their daily lives.

While in the city, Gathering participants will spend time at the Minneapolis Convention Center, U.S. Bank Stadium, area hotels and local congregations in addition to the many restaurants, parks and cultural centers the city has to offer.
