The team of Staff and Volunteers at the Jeremiah Tree are passionate about bringing the Gospel to life! We want to share its powerful message with the world and provide an environment of discipleship and fellowship to help men seeking to deepen their relationship with Christ and so find Abundant Life in Him. Our ministry focuses on the unique needs of each individual, equipping them to grow spiritually.
