This summer St Luke's Youth will be joining over 35,000 youth in New Orleans for the ELCA Youth Gathering. Over these next few months as we prepare for the trip we'll use this space to share our thoughts!
Watch this video and let us know what you think! Why do you think these stories need to be told? Why might it be important to the storytellers that YOU heard their story?

This video is all about a Jazz hall that has been in New Orleans for many years. It is important that these storys of the hall and the musicians are told so that the originality of New Orleans Jazz stays alive throughout the coming generations. The storytellers, I think, want the same thing, they don't want New Orleans Jazz or the feel of the music to dissappear. This music makes New Orlands unique and it is something everyone has heard, with help from Preservation Hall.

Thank you for bringing this video about Preservation Hall to our attention. I think it's important for the kids to see this because they might not know all of the history that New Orleans tells. The story will help to reinforce how important their work with the youth gathering will be.
