Jenny was born in Covington, LA and raised in Houma, LA. She has one older brother. She has been a single parent for her teenage son Dakota his whole life. She is a Nicholls State University Graduate with a Bachlors Degree in Accounting. She met her husband Joseph West III at Church in February 2021 and they were married on September 20, 2021.

Jenny originally started attending Coteau Baptist Church with her family when she was a child. Her walk with Christ began in June 1997. As she grew up and moved away from her parents, slowly  over the years she turned away from Church and God. However; GOD’s call to come back to Him was too great for her to ignore and on February 11, 2019 she rededicated her life to Christ. It was the best decision she has ever made.  

Jenny officially became the Church Office Manager on February 8, 2021 bringing her back to Coteau Baptist Church.  She is also the Church Treasurer, a Kid’s Camp chaperone, a part of the Van Ministry team, and works alongside her husband as a Youth Volunteer. Being able to work in a ministry with her husband is something that is very important to her. Her husband Joseph is a Deacon and a Member of the Praise Team. 

Jenny believes that ministry is hard work, takes great sacrifice and can be exhausting. However, she also believes it is a blessing, privilege and honor to be a servant of GOD.

“Faithful servants never retire,…You can retire from your career, but you will never retire from serving GOD.” Rick Warren

Tiffany, originally from Valentine, LA, grew up as the fourth of five daughters. After moving to Houma in 1997 with her husband David, they built their life there and raised two sons, Hunter and Logan, who have grown into outstanding young men.Her life truly began on Easter Day in 1996 at Fort Leonard Wood, a remote military base where she felt lost and shattered. Despite her challenges, an impactful encounter with Christ reshaped her journey which  led her back to church.   Since 2010, Tiffany and her family have been actively engaged at Coteau Baptist Church, serving the community and nurturing their faith. In November 2015, they responded to a divine calling, leading Tiffany to assume the role of Worship Leader at Coteau.

With a fervor for worship leadership and community outreach, Tiffany and David oversee Coteau's Second Harvest Distribution program, offering physical and spiritual needs to the community.  Alongside the Event Planning Team, they also coordinate the annual "Secret Church Event" and participate in various church ministries. In 2016, Tiffany launched the "Hope Has Risen" Cancer Ministry to provide "Hope" to cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers during their challenging journeys.  Recently, David, her husband, launched a new project called the First Responder's Banquet, inspired by the cancer ministry.   Similar to a cancer banquet, the event aims to support and honor First Responders while sharing the gospel, great food, and live entertainment.    Since 2023 and under the umbrella of Rescue America, she also leads a passionate team of volunteers in a ministry who  have joined the army to stand up and fight against Human Trafficking.  As a whole, the Boudreaux Family is  convinced that everything we do is for the sole purpose of honoring the one true King and spreading the message of Jesus to a world in need.  

Beyond her church commitments, Tiffany serves as the Indian Education Resource Specialist for the Terrebonne Parish School District. Her dedication lies in preserving Native American culture and ensuring students receive the education they merit.

 "Being summoned to serve in ministry is a privilege and an honor. Yet, the ultimate joy comes from having Jesus, my Savior,  as a friend. I pray that I share Jesus so often that everyone can share in this privilege, honor, and friendship with me. That would be a life worth living!"

Sarah began a personal relationship with Christ as a single parent. Through those years she became reliant on the Lord for strength and comfort. Coming from a different religious background, she did not know about being born again and what that meant. She started attending Coteau when she started dating Jeremy. Her and Madison became regular attendees in October 2016 and became members soon after. At Coteau is where she learned about giving her life to Christ and being born again. 

Sarah became involved with VBS in the summer of 2017 when she helped with the music rotation. Later that year, Sarah joined the praise team where she helps lead worship every Sunday. Towards the end of 2018, Sarah was asked to become the director of VBS. She knew it would be a challenge but she knew she could lean on God and her church leaders when needed. In December 2021, Sarah began teaching children’s Sunday School. She is learning new ways to reach children and is becoming more passionate about leading them. Sarah is excited to see where God is leading her through children’s ministry.

Cynthia grew up in the Baptist church and accepted Christ as a child. In her early 20’s, she felt that she never really had accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior.
