YAVs are an invaluable extension of the Church’s body, serving communities all across the world and especially in our presbytery. Because of the generosity of individuals, congregations, and organizations, our presbytery has experienced much joy and transformation through the lives of faithful young adults.
Please consider supporting our program through making a financial contribution.
Your contribution allows the program to provide YAVs with a year of housing, health insurance, spiritual formation and vocational discernment curriculum, and a small monthly stipend for food and utilities ($550 per month per YAV). To read more about the program and its impact in our presbytery, please visit our About Page.
Checks made payable to the Presbytery of South Louisiana can be sent to:

Each YAV is committed to raising $6,500 to support their year of service. If you would like to contribute to individual fundraising efforts, please place the name of the YAV in the “memo” line.

“And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. As it is written:
‘They have freely scattered their gifts to the poor;
their righteousness endures forever.‘
Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.” – 2 Corinthians 9:8-11 (NIV)
