Youth Evangelism Celebration kicks off today

November 23, 2015

By Message Staff

LAFAYETTE –  The annual Youth Evangelism Celebration kicks off tonight.

The largest gathering of Louisiana Baptists each year, YEC is scheduled for Nov. 23-24 and will feature high-energy music, inspiring messages, fellowship and much more. Due to on-going renovations at the Rapides Coliseum in Alexandria, and an unknown date of completion, the Cajundome will be the home for YEC through 2017.

The theme for this year’s YEC is Moments, based off Psalm 119:32.

You can follow the event through the Baptist Message’s Facebook and Twitter updates. Send any photos to brian@baptistmessage.com and we’ll post them on our Facebook page and in our photo gallery once YEC has ended.
