Family

Bro. Jason found the love of his life, Sadonna, at church. Their mutual love for the Lord immediately bonded them with great similarities. They have been married since 1998 and have been blessed with three healthy, active children. Their parents remain active supports in their lives encouraging them to keep God the priority in their life.

The Lord's Church In My Life

I had the pleasure of being raised by two faithful Christian parents who were always very active in their local congregations and personal work. Home teaching and family example led me to respond to the Gospel and become a Christian at a young age. I was put to work in leading roles of worship as a youth, preparing me for preaching at many congregations throughout West Virginia and Ohio. My family and I were instrumental in starting a local congregation in the Marietta-Reno, Ohio area where both my and Sadonna’s family currently attend. My initial plan was to move to Kettering temporarily for schooling and then return to Marietta shortly thereafter. We decided to make our home in Kettering and with the congregation at Bigger Road after finding the family of Christians there provided the encouragement, teaching, and faith growing environment we have always desired.

Deacon's Role

As a deacon at the church of Christ in Kettering his primary role is integrating new members (to the Kettering family) into our local work as well as publishing our pictorial directory, managing gospel meetings, leading the visitation program, and maintaining the picture board. He also assists the elders in varied tasks as assigned, including: following up on the sick, fulfilling individual needs, and occasional pulpit preaching. He also leads a group in active communication with an assigned missionary to make sure we are meeting any of their needs.
