J127 Ministry Leadership Announcement

We would like to share an important leadership update at J127.
After faithfully serving as Executive Director, Connie Pettitt has decided to step down from her role. We are deeply grateful for her leadership, dedication, and faithful service to J127. Her willingness to answer the Lord's call to come out of retirement and lead our organization during an important season has been a tremendous blessing. Her compassion, commitment, and love for the children, families, and residents we serve have left a lasting impact. We thank her for all she has done and pray God's blessings as she begins this new chapter.
We are pleased to announce that Hallie Jones has been appointed Interim Executive Director, effective immediately. Hallie has demonstrated a strong commitment to the mission and values of J127, and we are confident she will provide steady leadership as the organization continues its work.
Please join us in thanking Connie for her faithful service and welcoming Hallie into her new role. We appreciate your continued prayers, encouragement, and support as J127 remains committed to serving the community, residents and fulfilling the mission God has entrusted to us.

WOW! What a special evening at J127 Ministry! 🎉🙏🏻💯
A huge thank you to our Life Skills presenter, Church of Christ Youth Pastor Jered Hyatt. Our young women learned so much from his hands on, practical approach to basic car maintenance. We are incredibly grateful for the time, knowledge, and encouragement he shared with them.
We are also so thankful for all the wonderful volunteers, mentors, community members, board members, family members, and staff who came out to enjoy the evening and bless us with their presence. We loved celebrating the amazing accomplishments of each of our young women with you!
A very special thank you to the Clark Associates Foundation for funding our renovations and to our contractor, Rocky Clark, for providing the boots on the ground that brought this dream to life.
We are especially grateful that our pavilion fans were installed today, officially completing this amazing project! 🎉🎉🎉
What a beautiful evening filled with celebration, community, gratitude, and hope! 💛

- This training was more than another opportunity to learn. It was a reminder that God is continually preparing His people for what He has for us.
- Trauma informed care gives us greater understanding, compassion, and practical tools to help others move from merely surviving to truly healing.
- Every lesson learned becomes another way we can educate, advocate, encourage, and help create safer places for people who have experienced hardship.
