From what I have read on this is you must take extra training to be able to do so. And the training is annual. This does not feel like a huge win in the you are a trusted member of society category and well church is just another building. What is the training going to entail.

Don't ask, don't tell. It's nobody's business if you do. And if your church, synagogue, temple, whatever, agrees that you can, it's DOUBLY nobody else's concern.
Probably La. law requires more firearms training for civillians for concealed carry than for police. Upside-down and backwards.
I can hear them no: "If we give a little on X, we can have a separate list of smartass (Thank YOU, Vice President Biden!) gun nuts who want to push the envelope."
