Crawfish Boil Partnership with Unitarian Church

Have you ever noticed the OTHER church on the other corner of S. Claiborne Ave and Jefferson Ave?  We have a very interesting shared history!  Both congregations can trace our roots to the same man, Rev. Dr. Theodore Clapp in the early 1800s.  Both churches occupied different locations and have ended up katty corner from each other in Broadmoor.  Fast forward to 2015: hosting a joint crawfish boil to raise money for UNITY of Greater New Orleans.

While a history discussion was not the impetus for this event, it is still an interesting story.  We have a few goals to accomplish with this event:

  • Eat More Crawfish
  • Raise Money for a Good Cause
  • Increase Fellowship Between Neighboring Congregations
