THE HEIRBORN SERVANTS STORY
|
The seeds of Heirborn Servants were planted in our founder’s childhood. After his father abandoned the family, Jon and his siblings were raised by a single mother who struggled to support her family. When a family member gifted her with an old vehicle, Jon saw hope take root. The ability to drive her kids to school, get to work reliably, and conveniently accomplish daily tasks like grocery shopping and visits to the doctor made a real and lasting impact on the lives of their family.
Although Jon’s unstable childhood led to anger and acting out—including several brushes with the law—a relationship with Jesus reversed the course of his life, guiding him into roles serving as a pastor at 12 Stone Church and as a Gwinnett Police Chaplain. But God wasn’t done with Jon yet. With the urging of God and the encouragement of his wife, Lesley, Jon launched Heirborn Servants in 2016. Since then, Jon has lived out its mission daily by engaging with local church communities, partnering with local charity organizations, and interceding—both in prayer and in action—on behalf of those facing seemingly hopeless situations. Jon invites you to prayerfully consider becoming part of something bigger than yourself: Heirborn Servants. |
