The Western States Youth Gathering returns to Southern California this summer, calling for youth and adult leaders to register!
This gathering uniquely brings together youth from across the western United State to connect with like-minded peers in worship, games, and learning.
The 2026 Western States Youth Gathering (WSYG) is excited to announce a partnership with the ELCA Youth Gathering and California Lutheran University (CLU). We will be celebrating the strengths of this partnership by coming together June 28th - July 1st, 2026, at California Lutheran University, Thousand Oaks, CA. Both the WSYG and the Gathering have had a rich history of bringing young people together, and the partnership with CLU will only enhance the experience.
