The record flooding throughout Louisiana, especially in north Louisiana, has led to postponements of  several events scheduled for Saturday.

The Missions Jamboree (M-JAM) which was to take place at Cedar Crest Baptist Church in West Monroe, has been rescheduled for a later date to be announced. For more information, call 800.622.6549, extension 266.

Also two multi-denominational, pro-life prayer vigils – one in Bossier City and the other in Shreveport — have been moved to March 19.

Due to flooding in north Louisiana, The Generate Conference 2016 slated for Monday and Tuesday at North Monroe Baptist is being postponed.  The new date for the conference will be determined at a later date.
