Louisiana Conference

The Louisiana Conference, through the Conference Board of Discipleship and the Conference Council on Ministries, is offering a FREE online service in the area of worship. This nationwide service is directed by Dr. Marcia McFee, who served as consultant to our Conference Worship Committee for the 2011 Annual Conference session. She has been invited back to assist with the 2012 Conference session, as well. Dr. McFee is a nationally known worship leader who coordinated worship at the 2008 General Conference session, and who will guide worship at the General Conference session in 2012. Through Worship Design Studio, local churches will get worship planning help for every season of the liturgical year. Dr. McFee will produce an audio PODcast of interviews with nationally-known preachers, music directors and visual artists in advance of each liturgical season. They will talk about the upcoming season and brainstorm various thematic ideas to help get your worship team jump-started in their planning. Marcia will post ideas and materials with the PODcast. The year-long subscription also includes a 60-page Worship Design Notebook to guide you step-by-step through the process. Another free service through the Studio includes short video learning sessions posted by Marcia on topics related to worship design and leadership that you can use to start great discussions with your worship team. The 2011-2012 year of this free service begins with the season of Advent. The cost of this opportunity would normally be $350 per year for each congregation. The Louisiana Conference is providing this to you at no charge for the coming year. To register, please email the Conference office at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
