Countdown to Leadership & Discipleship in the Wilderness 2026!
Early next month, LDW 2026 will be officially underway! We are excited to see what God will do in the lives of the college students who will participate.
The past few years have been full of disruption, awareness, isolation, change, and division. We find ourselves longing for real community. We feel a need to see and be seen by others, to pursue unity in diversity, and to learn how to lead, follow, and come alongside each other in true fellowship.
LDW can be that space. Participants will experience six weeks away from the distractions of everyday life; six weeks in an immersive, intensive community experience with a group of their peers. They will experience space to be with the Lord, listen to Him, and grow in their understanding and relationship. They will experience a time and space away that allows them to share and bear the burdens of others.They will see and be seen, all in the context of the beautiful and demanding wilderness of Wyoming.

For 25 years, Leadership & Discipleship in the Wilderness has been about students being challenged to grow in their intimacy with God, embracing their identity as an image-bearer of the Creator and a leader in His Kingdom, and growing in servanthood, knowing, community, Christ-likeness, and spiritual disciplines. It is our deep hope that our pursuit of this occurs in a community that reflects the diversity of God’s kingdom. More than ever, we need this space.
