Jacob Welch is head of our Security Team at First New Testament. He served as an usher until he felt the call to lead the security for the church. Jacob has been a member of First New Testament for 10 years. His heart in this ministry that the Lord has called him to is to bring security to the congregation in a way that would keep distractions outside of the Church from being a hindrance as they worship the Lord, uninhibited, with their whole focus on the One that they came to be with, Jesus. Jacob’s testimony is lengthy and very involved, with many dangers, toils, and snares, but through the Lord’s amazing grace, he was saved in 2006. Jacob was born and raised in Baker, Louisiana. He married his wife Jamie in 1995. Together they lead First New Testament’s 40’s and 50’s fellowship. They have four wonderful children, Jackie, Chase, Caleb and Alli, all of whom serve in some capacity at First New Testament.
