The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - Laplace

About this church

The La Place Ward meets at 15 Palmetto Dr in Laplace, the only Latter-day Saint meetinghouse the directory lists for this Louisiana city; the closest alternative sits 14.6 miles off in Luling. Sacrament meeting begins at 9 a.m. and the building's Sunday hours run until 11, a tighter window than many meetinghouses keep since only one congregation uses the space.

That single hour is built around hymns, opening and closing prayers, the sacrament of bread and water passed among the congregation, and talks given by members rather than clergy. A second hour of classes follows immediately, with Primary meeting apart for children. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints does not pass a collection plate, and attendance is free to anyone who walks in. Many regulars wear Sunday clothing, but visitors are welcome regardless of how they dress. The entrance, parking lot, restroom, and seating are all wheelchair accessible. Given that local timing can change, a quick call before visiting is worthwhile.
