 Northern & Central Louisiana Interfaith
Collective Leader's Meeting
Monday, 7/15, 7 - 8:30 p.m.
Little Flower of Jesus Catholic Church

Topic: Education

Interfaith is deeply concerned about changes to education at all levels in Monroe, Ouachita Parish and throughout Louisiana. Our agenda includes both raising some concerns that have already been brought to our attention, hearing the concerns of the gathered leaders, and identifying people who would like to get involved in researching and stratagizing around these concerns.

Contact Deacon Bette or Karen Hayward for more information, or just show up at the meeting. Your perspective is valued!
