Epworth Project is located in Slidell, Louisiana on the “Northshore” of Lake Pontchartrain, about 30 miles outside of New Orleans.
The Epworth Project has a unique dorm facility called the Epworth Building. Check out pictures of this facility on our virtual tour. This building (built by volunteers in the weeks following Hurricane Katrina) has separate sleeping quarters for men and women with bunk bed accommodations, spacious bathrooms with showers, common space, and a full kitchen. We can accommodate 54 volunteers in bunks. Larger groups are welcome. We work with our host church – Aldersgate United Methodist Church – to creatively meet the housing needs of bigger groups. Don’t worry… all lodging will be arranged.
Our Epworth Building houses most of our volunteers and it also is home to our office. Please be aware that this is a shared space. Our staff and ministry partners often meet in the same building as our dormitory facility.
Aldersgate United Methodist Church is gracious enough to provide parking, meeting and dining space, and other resources for all of our volunteer groups over the summer. Please be mindful when parking vehicles and playing outside that this is a church and many things happen on the campus during the day and evening – from Bible studies to committee meetings. Please ask your youth to be considerate of others as we share these facilities.
