Why The Family Church?


This is why! We are a growing family. I hold in my arms to babies born to 2 different families in the church on the same day. TFC, I present to you, Baby Olivia, daughter of Steven and Brittany Johnson, and Baby Ashton, son of Rudy and Tandi Begnaud, nephew of Rachel B(Our Worship Pastor). Both born on Monday, July 24th, at Lafayette General. Welcome to Fatherhood Rudy, I am proud of you. New life is always amazing to me, in one moment they are inside the comfort of the mother, the next moment - born into another world. God is truly amazing. I think in 2006 alone, 18 new babies will be born into our church. This past Sunday, we dedicated 11 babies. We are truly a New Testament Church, where the Church literally "grew daily"! Ms. BEA, our nursery Director, she is in need our prayers and a few more volunteers as well, maybe a pay raise also.

I love being a part of a growing church. Our vision is "Building Lives, Families, and Futures". We are sure seeing that "Family" part coming to pass these days. Looks like we will have another "huge" Baby Dedication Service in September again.
