Missionaries coming to Louisiana!

United Methodist missionaries are sent to the ends of the Earth, and even to the Louisiana Annual Conference. Seven missionaries from five locations will be the guests of churches here in Louisiana this summer. They are available to tell their story at your church.

To host a missionary, a church will be responsible for their housing, meals and local travel. Hosts must be willing to begin a relationship and find ways to support the missionaries.
