We are incredibly proud of our outstanding youth for representing us so well as participants in the Third District Bogue Chitto Youth Choir that was held at Macedonia Missionary Baptist Church in Hammond, Louisiana.

Our young people did a marvelous job ministering through song during the Youth Conference tonight. Their dedication, talent, and heart for worship were truly a blessing to everyone in attendance.

The journey continues! Join us as they minister once again at the State Convention on Monday, July 27, at 7:00 P.M. at Greenfield Missionary Baptist Church in Hammond, Louisiana.
Let's continue to encourage and pray for our youth as they use their gifts to glorify God. We are so proud of each of you! 🙌🎵💙

Today, we had the privilege to worship with one of our very own Minister Martavius James. Minister James brought a word to our graduates as they embark on their new journeys. We celebrated Sis. Kayla Crosby, who will be attending LSU in Baton Rouge and Sis. Kynaisha Abron, who's attending Avaeda in Covington. We had one graduate who graduated from Southeastern, Bro. Daniel Jones in communications. Our high school graduates received a word of encouragement from Sis. Jazxavia Crosby and their parents a word from Sis. Libra Crosby. Thank you to all who came out to worship with us.
