Since 1984, a coalition of community partners in Northwest Louisiana have held a remembrance service for victims of the Holocaust. Through our remembering and active cooperation, we strive to obliterate injustice.
Northwest Louisiana students are given the option to participate in the Holocaust Remembrance Literary and Arts Project. Students learn about the Holocaust, and produce poems, stories, essays, visual art, or musical compositions.
To honor the victims of one of humanity's worst moments, our community remembers the Holocaust with an annual inclusive service.
The 44th Annual Holocaust Remembrance Service will be in April or May of 2027. The service is traditionally held on a Sunday at 3:00 p.m.
This page will be updated with details as they are confirmed. Those wishing to receive updates via email can subscribe to the mailing list.
The 43rd Annual Holocaust Remembrance Service was on Sunday April 19, 2026 at First Methodist Church Shreveport. The Chair of the event was Laura Crawford, and featured on the program were cellist John-Henry Crawford and the Centenary College Choir. Video of the event is available here.
