 Jerry Allison, Senior Minister
While studying at
Campbellsville University, in Kentucky, Jerry met a beautiful woman named
Shelli. They quickly became best friends. In December 1992,
they were married. A short time after both Shelli and
Jerry graduated with Bachelor's of Science degrees, the
newlyweds moved to Knoxville so Jerry could study at Johnson Bible College.
After seven years with no children, in 1999, Jerry and Shelli
became foster parents for the State of Tennessee. In August of that
year, a precious six-month old boy was placed in their
home. Over two years later, Cameron was adopted and made a
permanent member of their family.
At the age of thirty-three, Jerry became the Senior Minister
of Meadowbrook Christian Church on May 2nd, 2004. Following in the
"tent-making" tradition of the Apostle Paul, Jerry supports his family and
ministry by working as an electrcial contractor. In December of that
same year, he graduated JBC with another Bachelor's of Science degree.
Jerry, Shelli and Cameron just celebrated the addition of the
newest member of their family, Meghan. Through a private agency, they
were able to bring this precious bundle home from the hospital in May 2005 and
finalized the adoption two months later in July.
