Pastor Jon Rollefson is a native of Forest City, Iowa. With a farming background, Jon first received his undergraduate degree from Iowa State University in 1981 with a major in Animal Science/Farm Operation. He proceeded to engage in the hog,
feed, and then agricultural banking/marketing/business development business for a total of over 30 years. During that time, God blessed him with his wife Laura, who when they met was an accomplished art teacher, but is currently a realtor (along with Jon) with Security Realty in Gowrie, IA. The couple decided to attend seminary in 2001 after a long-time calling from God for Jon. Pastor Rollefson received his Master of Divinity Degree from Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, OK in 2004 and did post-graduate work at Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN from 2003-2005, which included a church internship in Cedar Rapids, IA. For the past 15 years, Jon and Laura have served churches part and full time in Forest City, IA, Callender, IA, and currently in Ellsworth, IA. The couple has 3 adult children: Lorissa and Bill Ehrlichman of Waukee, IA, Justin and Oakley Rollefson of Tempe, AZ, and Jeremy and Olivia Rollefson of Rockford, IL.
Pastor Jon and Laura have a passion for seeing others gain a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and that they can experience the real presence of God through worship, Bible Studies, one on one encounters, and church activities.
