The Senate Resolution commends Pastor Mike Wicker and First Lady Tara Wicker for their significant contributions to the Christian community and their unwavering commitment to faith, family, and life. As the founders of Lighthouse Christian Fellowship Church, they have dedicated over twenty-five years to ministry and community transformation, including vital support for Hurricane Katrina survivors. Their leadership extends to initiatives such as "My God Votes," which aims to engage the Christian community in civic matters and uphold biblical values. They also co-direct Louisiana Black Advocates for Life, promoting programs that empower families and urban communities through faith-based education.
The resolution highlights their role in hosting weekly worship services at the Louisiana State Capitol, fostering a renewed spiritual atmosphere for lawmakers and the public. Their efforts not only reinforce the importance of faith in public life but also serve as a testament to their dedication to service and family values, exemplified by their thirty-two years of marriage and six children. The Senate expresses gratitude for their lasting impact on Louisiana's spiritual and civic landscape through this resolution.
