Jana Pinson defines herself by the tender, precious love of a holy God. Worship moves her and encourages her to serve another day.

Pinson is a Baptist pastor’s daughter and a pastor’s wife. She and her husband Grover met at Hardin-Simmons University. She later graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in marketing.

They have two daughters, Teddi and Jacci, and one son-in-law, Wesley Iley.

As the executive director of a pregnancy center with five locations in the Coastal Bend of Texas, she gets to see God doing amazing and miraculous things every day. She is incredibly thankful to serve a God who loves us so intimately.
