2024 World Religion Day Postponed Due to Recent Severe Winter Weather — Reschedule Plans TBA

Due to the recent winter storm in the Shreveport metro area, we are postponing the 2024 World Religion Day event originally scheduled for 21 January 2024.

The rescheduled World Religion Day plans will be announced when we have them.

Our area is not used to the snowy / icy roads, severe cold, and the impact of this winter event on our event organizers and the wider community.

As soon as we have more information on the rescheduled World Religion Day event, we will post it on our website and on social media.

Shreveport – Bossier World Religion Day Website Changes

We are moving our website to WordPress (a customizable content management system) that will allow easier editing of website content and easier sharing of content with social media.

Currently, our site is very minimalist but we will be adding new content to it in the next few weeks.

We will also add earlier website content including photo galleries of earlier World Religion Day events.

Thanks for your patience and understanding as we move to WordPress and reorganize our website’s contents.
