About Us

Autumn Hope Ministries is a 501-c3 ministry located in Cookeville, TN, The purpose of this ministry is to fulfill the great commission of Jesus (Matthew 28:19-20) and his commands to love one another (John 13:34-35). The purpose and vision of the ministry are threefold as follows:

  1. To share the Gospel of Jesus with the lost and hurting of the world through culturally relevant means.
  2. To care for widows and orphans in their need, by training widows to provide for their families and placing orphans in a Christian based Foster-Care system designed and operated in conjunction with our partners locally.
  3. To train pastors in leadership and Biblical knowledge empowering them to reach their own people.

I founded Autumn Hope in 2005 after 15 years in the pastoral ministry. God has called me to “the nations” and my heart is with the hurting and forgotten people of the world.

Autumn Hope is a faith-based ministry and operates solely on the donations and gifts of individual and church supporters. The ministry is operated with the highest integrity and has show amazing results since conception.
