Jeff & Allison returned to Freeport Church of Christ in 2005 (they worship here in the early 90's as members) after being in Atlanta Georgia for the prior 15 years. Before entering full-time ministry, Jeff retired from a 20-year government career with the US Army. Along with his pulpit work, Jeff serves as one of our Elders. Allison works part-time as the church secretary.
Jeff works with Rockford Christian Camp at most sessions and also serves as a member or their board.
Jeff & Allison also work with Believe in the Children (BIC). BIC is a faith-based non-profit child protective service agency. This is a work that they helped found and now serve on the board of directors. Jeff is the president, and Allison is both the board secretary and Director of Education.
Their son Ben, daughter-in-law Casey, and grandchildren (Liam, Fiona, & Declan) also live in Freeport. Ben serves as a corporal on the local police and Casey is a nurse at Freeport Health Network. They are active in the congregation as well as Rockford Christian Camp
