WIYLDE: July 21-26, 2014

 

Wholly Iowa Youth Leadership Discipling Event (WIYLDE) is a ministry and leadership workshop for high school youth, grades 9-12, of ELCA congregations in Iowa held at Luther College in Decorah.

 

The workshop provides opportunities for young people to grow in their own faith and take tools back to their home congregations to provide leadership in the youth ministry program. Each participant will learn:

  • How to help plan and lead worship
  • How to lead a Bible study
  • Where to find youth ministry materials
  • How to help organize youth events
WIYLDE is supported by all three ELCA Iowa synods. If you know a high school student who would benefit from attending this workshop event, you can find more information on the synod website.
