Support All Saints Youth Ministry
This summer, nine young men and women from All Saints Lutheran Church & School will travel to St. Louis for Dying Church, Rising Hope — the 2026 Higher Things national youth conference June 30–July 3 at Washington University, St. Louis.Higher Things is the premier confessional Lutheran youth conference in the country, gathering hundreds of young Lutherans from across the nation for four days centered on the Divine Service, catechesis, plenary lectures, and genuine Lutheran fellowship. This year's theme takes its bearings from a question every faithful Christian feels: What does the future of the Church look like? The answer Higher Things proclaims is not a strategy or a program — it is Jesus Christ, crucified and risen, who builds His Church and gives her life through Word and Sacrament.Our youth will attend daily Divine Services, hear faithful preaching from confessional Lutheran pastors and theologians (including the President of Concordia Seminary, St. Louis), participate in breakout sessions on Lutheran doctrine, and spend four days immersed in the life of the Church alongside young Lutherans from around the country. Three chaperones from our parish will accompany them.Every dollar goes directly toward All Saints Youth Ministry and helping send these twelve young people — nine youth and three chaperones — on a trip that will ground them more deeply in the Lutheran confession and the life of the Church."Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." — Proverbs 22:6
