Terry Kelley

Terry Kelley is a former motorcycle gang leader from the 1970s in Pittsburgh, PA. Not
long after his conversion in 1984, Terry began his ministry as a Youth Superintendent in
the Brethren Church. After graduating from Elim Bible College in 1992 he joined the
staff as Director of Support Services and Operations. Terry pastored in the Free
Methodist Church for four years and was a youth mentor working with troubled teens in
juvenile placement.

Today Terry is a justice-involved Life Coach for post-placement teens and correctional
reentry adults. His vision is to help bring success to those who have given their lives to
Christ while incarcerated. Assisting with placement in a local church, counseling, and
mentorship are all important aspects for these individuals to continue their walk with the
Lord. Many who have come out of a life of incarceration find it very difficult to get a job,
find housing, and establish a good network of friends.

Terry has volunteered countless hours and resources to meet with chaplains at jails and
detention centers. He has reached out to local churches, pastors, and Christian
counseling centers willing to bring these individuals into their church. He provides
needed support for their personal lives while reentering the community. There has also
been a need to find adequate jobs and housing opportunities when these individuals are
released from detention. Your prayers and support will help these individuals have hope
for a 2nd chance and honor to our Lord Jesus Christ.
