Jamie and Kasey are Davie County through and through—born, raised, and deeply broken for their hometown. Jamie’s calling sparked in 2014 while studying at Piedmont International University, where God planted a distinct vision in his heart: to return to Davie County as a missionary and church planter.

The couple actually met while serving at Camp Manna Ministries. As they fell in love with each other, God simultaneously broke their hearts for the people of Davie, creating a shared burden to see their home county transformed by the Gospel.

Following their marriage in August 2020, the Lord led them through a intentional season of preparation in Winston-Salem. While Kasey pursued her Masters and Ph.D. in Neuroscience at Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Jamie joined the staff at REVO Church. At REVO, Jamie didn't just work; he learned firsthand what it means to equip one another and build a healthy church by serving in every capacity imaginable. During this relentless season, Jamie also earned his Masters from Carolina University and began his Doctorate in Discipleship from Liberty University.

Together, they lived out the Eremos core values before the church even had a name. They loved everyone and served everywhere—leading small groups, ministering to students, and pouring into men’s and women’s ministries. They anchored themselves in a commitment to worship always, trusting God's timing through years of waiting and preparing.

The birth of their son, Gideon, marked a shifting season. They knew the time of preparation had matured into a time of action: it was time to launch. Driven by the mandate to empower the found to reach the lost, Jamie and Kasey have returned home to saturate Davie County with the life-changing truth of Jesus.
