Meet the Founder
In 2012, Gale Hearn and Larry Locke saw a need in our community and responded with compassion. Through their prison outreach ministry at College Hills Church of Christ, they recognized that men returning from incarceration needed more than a place to sleep. They needed someone to believe in them. They needed guidance, accountability, friendship, and a Christ-centered community willing to walk alongside them as they rebuilt their lives.
What began as a simple act of seeing their neighbors became the Hearn House.
We are deeply grateful for the foundation they laid. Gale and Larry saw the person behind the circumstances and offered hope when others might have offered judgment. We are committed to carrying this legacy forward.
“Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”
-Jesus
