New Church Plant in Metairie

Church planting is one of our biggest needs in the Greater New Orleans area post Katrina.  The newest effort is being led by Jim Louviere, a church planting veteran.  He is focusing on people in transition in the Metairie area north of I-10.  This means that a lot of his work will be in apartment complexes, a notoriously unchurched part of any city.  They are in the process now of conducting, what Jim calls, "pizza focus groups" which are designed to learn about people's lives and their attitudes towards church.  This helps Jim and his core team share the gospel in ways that connect with their target group.  Keep Jim and his team in your prayers as they seek the Holy Spirit's direction for planting this church.
