Leadership

Jake grew up on a small farm in Upstate New York. He graduated from the United States Military Academy in 2010. During his time there the Lord had put people in Jake's life to share the good news of the gospel with him. Jake received Jesus Christ as his personal Savior on November 14, 2010 at the age of 23 while stationed at Fort Benning, GA. Jake married Hilary in November 2016.   He lived with his family in Clarksville for many years while serving as an Infantry and Special Forces officer. Jake loved his career in the Army but he felt God was calling him to a different mission. In 2020 he made the decision to get out of the Army and move his family to Ohio where he could be discipled and trained for the work of the ministry. He attended the four year Greentown Bible Institute and graduated in 2025. Jake was ordained in May 2026 and sent out to start Mission Harvest Baptist Church.
