LYO and the Gathering
LYO is an organization of young adults throughout our synod. The yearly WND LYO Gathering is held over the weekend of North Dakota's Teacher Convention. The Gathering is a chance for the youth of our synod to come together and worship through music, service projects, and prayer.
