What is the Louisiana School of Ministry?

 

Equipping, Enriching, Engaging

 

The Louisiana School of Ministry (LASOM) is the Louisiana Network’s sponsored and operated ministerial training program that enables persons to complete the educational requirements for credentialing with the Assemblies of God.  We provide a learning forum for laity interested in increasing biblical and doctrinal knowledge and developing ministry skills.  Not only does LASOM offer the courses required for obtaining ministerial credentials with the Assemblies of God, but LASOM CEU (Continuing Education Units) courses include several tracks designed to take the learning into deeper areas of study based on ministry and interest. LASOM is an affordable ministry training option that provides live interaction with caring instructors,
allowing time and opportunity to ask questions and gain clear, culturally-relevant answers that make sense. Additional information including course schedule, faculty and staff, and registration can be found to the left of this page.  For more information, please email the LASOM Registrar at lasom@laaog.org or call 318.445.6238.  Your call will be returned as soon as possible.
