UPCOMING EVENTS:
• July 1-5, 2026 — Revolution: America’s National Youth Conference. For details and to register, go to ltcbr.com.

Life Tabernacle operates from a beautiful 41-acre campus at the corner of Hooper and Blackwater roads in the City of Central, Louisiana, just outside Baton Rouge. It is a multi-racial church where everyone is welcome. On Sunday morning, church is held in seven sanctuaries on the campus. Most adults worship in the main sanctuary. Children are welcome there too but most attend one of the six worship services for children of a specific age and s*x. The message in the children’s services is the same as in the main sanctuary but designed for their age level. The bus ministry, supported by 50 buses, reaches out into the poorest areas of South Louisiana from Lafayette to Baton Rouge to New Orleans. The broadcast ministry reaches more than 7 million people a year as part of the Great Commission. Life Tabernacle supports missions at home and abroad.

Since March 2020, more than 3,000 people have been baptized at Life Tabernacle Church.

Life Tabernacle is also home to Revolution: America’s National Youth Conference, held every year just before July 4. In 2024, Revolution was held July 3-7 and attracted nearly 5,000. It is one of the largest youth conferences in the United States. Admission to the conference is free but reservations are required and must be made at ltcbr.com. The church built the Brush Arbor Freedom Center at Revolution Square in 2021 specifically to house the youth conference. Seating is currently 5,800.
