Kelly Jackson
HS RETREAT SPEAKER
Kelly Jackson is the RUF Campus Minister at THE Florida State University. Go Noles! He went to UGA where he fell more in love with Jesus and the local church, and he married a fellow RUF @ UGA student named Caroline Wicker (RUF is for lovers, y'all). They have 5 kids named Nora, Johnny, Annelise, Isaac, and Maggie, and have lived in Tallahassee since 2017. The Jacksons love Florida, good food, and good people. Southland is good people, and Kelly is pumped to be back as a speaker.
HS RETREAT WORSHIP LEADERS
Seven Rivers Worship aims to combine timeless truths through liturgy, lyrics, creeds, and confessions with the beauty of God's creativity and character through music and art that is relatable today. We believe the foundations of worship should consist of Spirit and Truth, and, in response, it should engage both the affections of our hearts and the attention of our minds as we seek to glorify our creator and make his name known to our community. Our hope is that anything we offer would aid in bringing the healing love of Jesus to broken people and broken places.
