Not sure what you mean by "witness".... but if you are hoping a young man that likes to have a good time can go to Mardi Gras and keep his church behavior on.... well, I think he would need more than prayers. He would need his mother to be there.
Elijah was made statements that he is a Christian. If he goes out "on a limb" by making that statement, then I do hope that his life will reflect what he has claimed to be. I'm not talking about "church behavior" (however one describes that), I am referring to a life that reflects a relationship with Christ. Elijah is looked up to by many young people, including my childern. He is, whether he likes or not, a role model. You can have a great time without falling into debachery.
Yes, his mother's presence would prob. help a good bit with all that goes on in New Orleans at Mardi Gras. Prayers would help too.

I was speaking with a sly look and a bit of tongue in cheek about his mother rather than prayer! ;~D
. New Orleans is a carnival of monumental proportions. But he'll get through it, you just may want to try to not find out how. I still think he is a good kid. Rather have him there than hanging out with Viggo.

Elijah was made statements that he is a Christian.Didn't know that--that's good to hear! He must have some conviction and courage to state that publicly in the profession he's in. Hopefully he will find some fellowship (no pun intended!) among other Christian actors that will help sustain him against the pressures of the industry.
