PINEVILLE, La. (LBM) — Louisiana College, recently named a top 30 Christian College by BestValueSchools.org, will celebrate LC Day in churches across the state on Sunday, Sept. 26, 2021.
Steve Horn, executive director for Louisiana Baptists, noted that LC Day is not intended to be a fundraiser, but an opportunity to expose students and parents to the opportunities and value of the State’s only Louisiana Baptist affiliated college.
“One of the greatest ways we can assist our college is to make our high school students and their parents more aware of Louisiana College,” Horn said. “We are thankful for what God is doing in and through LC and encourage our Baptist students, and their parents, to give serious consideration to making LC their college of choice.”
Horn joins LC President Rick Brewer in the hope LC Day will be an annual event for churches to observe on the fourth Sunday of September moving forward.
“The opportunity to engage and inform Louisiana Baptists through an annual ‘LC Day’ provides another way for us to say ‘Thanks’ to the people in our churches,” Brewer noted. “Their support of Christian higher education through prayer, sending students to LC, and continued financial support via the Cooperative Program are foundational to our success.”
Ideas for ways churches can celebrate LC Day include setting aside time during the service for testimonies from current students, alums and LC professors. Congregations are encouraged to invite Brewer, or other faculty to preach for LC Day, too, as well as other Sundays. Music groups, such as The Voices of LC, also are available to sing and share as schedules permit on LC Day and throughout the year.
