A Compelling Space for Young Adults

Journey House is an ecumenical ministry for young adults (18-40ish), gathered together in Northwestern Wisconsin. We are formed through a partnership between the ELCA ministry called Gather Network and the Next Gen ministry of the Wisconsin Annual Conference (UMC). 

The Gather Network

The Gather Network is a ministry of ELCA Young Adults that connects young adults in cities or regions throughout the ELCA. These ministries create space for young adults to join in fellowship, worship, community, and discussion. Gather invites the group to ask challenging questions of ourselves, our faith, and our world. The Gather Network hopes to create these communities for young adults across race, disability, faith background, gender, sexuality, and perspective to feel welcome to meet, to be, to gather.

NextGen ministries of the UMC

Next Generation is a ministry of the Wisconsin Annual Conference in The United Methodist Church. Journey House gathers together from across the conference and equips, empowers, and fosters young adults to love boldly, serve joyfully and lead courageously in the Conference and beyond.

JOIN THE JOURNEY TEAM

At Journey House, we create intentional space for you to become an important part of our ministry.  We offer yearly opportunities for  young adults to serve on one of our leadership teams including but not limited to: Discipleship, Outreach, and Worship.  

We provide flexibility so that anyone looking for a ministry internship, volunteer hours, exploration of ministry in a low-stress environment, or anyone who is passionate about helping young adults can find a space to lead and serve.  

By serving as a Journey Leader, you'll:
  • Learn more about your faith and how to make a difference in the community without losing your soul in the process.
  • Discover the rich tradition of Contemplative Practices and how to lead others in those practices.
  • Grow a deep well of emotional and spiritual practices for wholeness.
  • Gain practical experience in ministry focused on missional and intentional community building, contemplative practices, campus ministry, among other ministry opportunities that make this an ideal space to explore a call to ministry.
  • Make a difference for other young adults who are looking for space to belong, regardless if they are young professionals looking for community or first time parents looking for connection and support.
