2025 Gathering: Be a Young Adult Volunteer

Young Adult Volunteer (YAV) applications now open!

Are you a student age 19-25? Then this opportunity for you! Identified by their bright orange shirts, Young Adult Volunteers (YAVs) are adults ages 19–25 who serve as role models and servant leaders throughout all corners of the Gathering. The YAV application is now open (through December 31, 2024).  Find out more about being a YAV by CLICKING HERE.

We'd love to send a big group of YAVs to New Orleans for the 2025 Gathering!  

• CLC will scholarship any student who serves as a YAV at the 2025 LCMS Youth Gathering in New Orleans and pay the $400 registration fee.
• CLC will assist with $200 of food costs for YAVs while at the Gathering. 
• Simply apply now and let Melissa know that you applied.  
• When the registration fee becomes due, CLC will pay that fee.
