The LIFE Church was started in 1953 as the First United Pentecostal Church of Houma, in the home of the founding pastor, the late Rev. Charles McMichael.  After a short time the services were moved to the School Board office of the Terrebonne Parish.

 

Land was leased from Southdown Sugars for $100.00 per year.  A building was erected and later the land was purchased.  The church remained in that location (1504 Main Street) until 1979.

 

 

 

 

 

Land was again purchased from Southdown by Rev. M.K. James, at the location of 215 South Hollywood Road.  The first service in the new location was held December 16, 1979.

From 1953 until 1965, the church had three pastors.  They were Charles McMichael, G.W McKeithen, And Lloyd Lowery.  All of these men are deceased.  Rev. M.K. James and family came in 1965 and remained as pastor until December 31, 2005.  On November 22, 2005, Rev. Chad Ducote was elected as pastor.  On January 1, 2006, Rev. Ducote assumed the role of lead pastor.

  

Today The LIFE Church is a growing community of believers.  Many people from various background have found a place of belonging and faith.  It is the vision of Pastor Chad to welcome all to a deeper LIFE experience with Jesus.  If you find yourself with an imperfect past or without purpose and direction come make LIFE church a part of your present, so you will have great future.
