GOLA Louisiana

Applications for summer 2026 are no longer being accepted.

The GOLA Louisiana Team is a ministry to help zero-baptism and low-baptism Louisiana Baptist churches have a successful VBS this summer.

The teams of six college students each are chosen from Louisiana Baptist churches and Baptist Collegiate Ministries from across the state and are assigned to churches for a VBS.

There is no cost to the church for a team as their expenses are handled through the Georgia Barnette State Missions Offering and Cooperative Program. A GOLA hosting church is responsible for their own VBS expenses, such as literature for expected number of children, craft items, decorations, refreshments, and so forth.

For questions, contact Janet Williams at 318.448.3402 or email Janet.Williams@LouisianaBaptists.org.
