Baptist Singing Ministers will perform in Bayou Vista

The Louisiana Baptist Singing Ministers are gearing up for a busy 2018-19 concert season that includes a stop at the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola.
With the first performance just a week away, this group of 55 music ministers and laymen are eager to hit the highways and bi-ways of the state and share God’s love through their variety of music that includes a cappella spirituals, hymn arrangements and contemporary Christian tunes.
Since they organized in 1974, the Louisiana Baptist Singing Ministers have presented concerts at churches, detention centers, intervention program facilities and prisons.
During each performance, the group collects an offering for needy students.
Money collected funds the Louisiana Baptist All State Choir and scholarships for two Louisiana College and two new Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary students preparing for music ministry. Several former scholarship recipients are now members of the group.
The concert schedule for 2018-19 is:
Sept. 20 – Bayou Vista Baptist Church, Morgan City
Oct. 18 – First Baptist Church, Minden
Nov. 15 – New Hope Baptist Church, DeQuincy
Jan. 17 – Airline Baptist Church, Bossier City
