About us
In August 2008, Pastor Monica M. Ledbetter began having Bible Study out of her living room. It later turned into Trust in Jesus Outreach Ministry. Our very first church service was in October 2008. God had given Pastor Ledbetter a vision. Since our very first Worship Experience on October 12, 2008 that vision has never wavered.
Since that time, Trust in Jesus has experienced what can only be described as a supernatural move of God. We have learned to expect the unexpected and trust God as He has changed lives, put families back together, and extended grace and forgiveness to all who believe.
We have come a long way in a very short time but we are never finished and the best is ahead.
