CCYM/DCYM
CCYM (Conference Council on Youth Ministries) youth and adults meet each summer for Summer Meeting (formerly LYMO) and each January for Winter Meeting to plan Conference youth ministry events and retreats for the upcoming year. Our Louisiana CCYM plan and lead each annual event with the guidance and support of the CCYM adults.
CCYM is made up of elected DCYM (District Council on Youth Ministries) representatives.
