Wartburg Youth Leadership School is a ten day school in which 24 youth will gather for an ultimate faith journey as they share adventure, service, study, music and worship. Held on the campus of Wartburg Theological Seminary in Dubuque, WYLS participants consider the ULTIMATE YOU: Who claims You? Who Calls You? Who Sends You? Through the setting of an intentional Christian community, the youth are challenged to live out the Gospel and ask themselves, "How am I being called to lead?"
Our seminary faculty and students serve as guides as they walk alongside the youth through experiential education, Biblical and theological study, dynamic worship, service and community life. Youth will experience a range of perspectives from the Wartburg campus, to a Milwaukee Urban Immersion and then 30 feet up as they step out in faith on our High Ropes Adventure Course.

For Youth:
