Leadership
Lead Pastor
Jed and his wife Beth moved to New England to join the team at Harbor of Hope in 2006. They have four children, Jarin, Brooks, Karlie and Elise. He attended Ozark Christian College and is continuing his education at Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. Jed's three favorite places to go are: Panera (with his wife), to the back yard (with his kids), or to Starbucks. Jed used to live in Hawaii, and although he never actually made it up on a surf board, he got a lot of sun and has many memories. Although the tan is gone today and nowhere to be found, the memories still remain.

Matt and his wife, Lynda live in Lowell. Matt attended Eastern Illinois University and is a graduate of Ozark Christian College. Matt enjoys music, movies and graphic design.

Gregg Jennings
Student Pastor
Gregg is a graduate of Ozark Christian College and a current student at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. He is originally from Missouri and served at a church in the Washington DC area for three years where he met his wife Margaret. Margaret is a nurse but really her lifelong goal is to be Rachel Rae's alternate on 30 Minute Meals. They are newly married and absolutely love to spend time with people. Gregg has a deep love for God and when asked who his favorite Bible character is he simply says, "God... he's the hero of my story!" Gregg's deep passions in life are preaching and world missions.
