Congrats to Shane and Brandi Bellard on the birth of their brand-new baby boy. Born today @ 12:30pm at Lafayette General. 7 lbs 14 ozs, 20 and 3/4 inches. A beautiful baby boy named Joshua John Bellard. What a great God we serve - After all Shane and his family have been through this past year - What a great gift. Now they have a pair! Love ya Shane and Brandi -the both of you are an inspiration to me and to TFC!

PS - Bring him to the house anytime - We know what to do with boys!

Here we go again!


Sorry for the time away from my Blog Page! November was a really busy month and alot of great things happened. On November 9th, I turned 36 years old. Jay Sterling turned 10 years old on the 24th of this month. The day after Thanksgiving. Last year his birthday fell on Thanksgiving day - That happens like every 9 years or something. I pray all of you had a great Thanksgiving with your families. Tessy and I and the boyz got to go to Hot Springs, AK to be with her family for several days. We were in Arkansas when LSU beat the Razorbacks on the Friday. I wore my Purple and Gold very proud! Looking forward to a great December and Holiday season. We have a lot of great things coming up at TFC and I pray you can make as many as possible. Today, I had lunch with Tony Sonnier and Curt Arcement of Solomon, Smith, Barney - The lafayette office had a luncheon and speaker at the City Club in River Ranch. That place is growing like crazy - Anyway, the speaker was on staff at LSU when Nick Saban and the Tigers won the National Championship in 2oo3. He had a championship ring on - he let me hold it - i put it on my finger and took a picture. Here it is. My first National Championship Ring! PS. He made me give it back - this guy has little fingers!

Same Page Meeting - Exciting and Refreshing!


This past Sunday Night we had our Quaterly "Same Page Meeting". A time set aside for all leaders, staff, volunteers, and those that want to be a part of the vision of TFC to come together and hear from my heart what I feel in my spirit and what God is up to at TFC. We talked about the Foundational Scripture of TFC - 1 Cor. 1:7. We spoke of Building Lives, Families, and Futures - We talked about a new Childrens Worship Auditorium - We talked about UL Small Groups - We talked about a New Parking Lot and Hopefully this week I can reveal some BIG PLANS that are a possibility for TFC in the near future. It was real encouraging to me to see so many in attendance - You don't know what it means to Tessy and me to see you wanting to be a part of the Vision of TFC. Many of you work so hard and invest time, energy, and talents for TFC and you make me proud. You are really the life-line of TFC. I thank God often for our Staff and Workers that He has placed here at TFC. Thank you all for being a part of the Vision and being a part of what God wants to do in Acadiana. I love each of you dearly!
