    I'm looking for some training that will do for my annual training required for church carry.
    I'm located in Transylvania, LA.

    I need something by April.

    I would like to find something close but I am not opposed to traveling some if necessary.

    Any thoughts or ideas?

    Advantage Group is a good choice, they just did a class for a handful of friends.
    Gordon Hutchinson also does a good class; he has a minimum count for a class.

    Our security team has trained in-house and also with Distant Thunder and Broken Arrow in the Lafayette area. We always train as a team. If I understand the law correctly, the only criteria for this training is that it be approved by church leadership which could be anything to church specific training scenarios to a cook out where everyone does some plinking.
