Youth Ministry Youth Ministry in the diocese is carried out by adult advisors and a Youth Council, made up of young people from each deanery who vision, plan and orchestrate an outstanding Senior High Rally and Junior High Rally each year. Happening, a Cursillo-style youth weekend, is active in the diocese with two events planned each year. A Ministry Development training for adults who work with youth takes place each August. The incredible commitment of the youth of our diocese, their enthusiasm and love of God are a powerful witness to all of us. Please keep our young people and the countless adults who work with them in your prayers, that they might be strengthened and renewed in this exciting ministry.
Christian formation is a life-long process.
In the Diocese of Louisiana, Christians are being formed in many ways. We work together to promote programs in congregations and give support to those who are committed to the process of Christian formation. The Department of Christian Education is made up of consultants who are available to congregations. As such we sponsor a yearly Mentor Training Event with the Diocese of Western Louisiana. There are ten EFM groups in the diocese that represent a dedication to ministry and a richness of backgrounds that add to the strength of the church in Louisiana.
