Skills
Enjoy a great sunbelt climate, Large city, with small town feel, easy commutes, great recreational and cultural amenities, excellent housing values. Much to offer to the right candidate. There’s a lot to love when you live in the Shreveport-Bossier area, gentle rolling hills of North Louisiana descend to lush river land near the Red River where everything that is planted flourishes. The warm sunbelt climate combined with just enough rainfall nourishes the live oak trees and azaleas found throughout our area. Festivals throughout the year like Mudbug Madness (celebration of crawfish), Holiday in Dixie (celebrating the Louisiana Purchase) and Red River Revel, the arts festival ranked as a top tourist event in North America and, yes, we celebrate Mardi Gras too, family style! Wonderful bike trails, lakes and rivers something for the entire family.

Shreveport and its sister city across the Red River, Bossier City, offer many of big-city amenities in a friendly Southern environment:
•  Metropolitan area of more than 250,000 with symphony, opera and ballet companies, theaters and museums
•  Most places are just a 15 to 20 minute drive away with two major interstates running through Shreveport
•  Fabulous food from Louisiana Cajun and Creole to Soul – from kitschy cafes to fine dining
•  Easy drive to mountains in Arkansas or even to Dallas for the few “big city” things you don’t find here
•  Reach the beach in a day’s drive – we are far enough away not to be negatively affected by hurricanes.
•  Gaming community with multiple casinos and thoroughbred racing too

Notes
A Firm Foundation
Religion matters in Shreveport-Bossier, helping to craft our values. Most major faiths have a presence here, so there is likely to be a congregation ready to greet you as a new member.

Southern Hospitality
You’ve heard about it – we have it. We still say “Yes ma’am and No ma’am” because that’s the way our parents trained us to be, respectful but friendly and warm. The stranger you meet today will be a friend tomorrow. When you see a smile or get a hug, you know it’s sincere. Snowbirds who come to visit will want to stay.

Hopefully this gives you a good overview of our area and we invite you to spend some time with us. Please let me know if you would like to formalize a visit to our campus. I have attached a video of our system and area.
