The next meeting of the Men’s Christian Fellowship of Pebble Creek (MCFPC) will be held Wednesday, Feb. 4, at 7:30 a.m. in the Tuscany Falls Chianti Room, with featured speaker Terry Blakemore of Quantum Helicopters. The MCFPC is a group of over 150 Christian men. We meet the first Wednesday of each month through April and feature a wide range of interesting guest speakers.

Terry Blakemore has been an aviation enthusiast since his dad took him flying at age 9. He is both a rotorcraft and fixed wing rated CFII. Before his civilian flying career, Terry fulfilled a boyhood dream of flying fighters, serving as an F-16 Instructor Pilot in both the USAF and AF Reserves. Terry is a distinguished graduate from the United States Air Force Academy with a B.S. in Economics. He holds an MBA in Financial Planning as well as an Associate Degree in Helicopter Flight Instruction. His latest degree was earned through Quantum’s association with Dodge City Community College. Terry has been married for 25 years to his hometown sweetheart, DeLinda. They are blessed to have three adult children: Abigail, Samuel, and Rachel. In his spare time, Terry enjoys spending time with his family and serving alongside his wife as a young adults leader at their local church.

In addition to monthly meetings, the MCFPC conducts weekly bible studies each Tuesday at 8:30 a.m. by zoom and in person in the Tuscany Falls Chianti room annex.
