Mitchell Jennings
Community Pastor
Mitchell is the Community Pastor at Remain. Born and raised in Lawton, Oklahoma, Mitchell grew up in a relatively conservative Christian home. He attended church every time the doors were open from his earliest memories through high school. He moved to Shawnee, OK after high school to pursue education in Cross-Cultural Ministry. After 2 years at OBU, Mitchell left school to embark on a journey of full time ministry. During this time, he met his partner, Justin, and a previously very secret part of him became very public. Mistiniry in most churches seemed to longer be an option. After moving to OKC, Mitchell connected with Remain and a door to ministry was re-opened. The previously “Hell Bound Homo” gets to be a pastor and preach the gospel in an environment where sexuality and identity aren’t conditions of love and grace. Mitchell preaches from time to time in his favorite story telling style. He also finds us a way out of the church regularly to hang out with our friends who aren’t comfortable with the church.
“We aren’t here to convert our rainbow friends, we are here to be a safe place full of love, acceptance, and grace for any and all friends. Honestly, I just want to have a great time with great people.”
