The staff and contributors of 318 Forum Magazine share the concerns of our fellow citizens and the business people of Northwest Louisiana regarding COVID-19 and its effects on all of us. These are challenging and uncertain times, to say the least, and we are still far from solid ground. We encourage you to live in the moment to the best of your ability and celebrate the small things. Pray for the safety of our friends, neighbors and families. Practice social distancing and help others where you can. God willing, we will see you all again in two weeks.
