About

To most fans, Jon Shirley is a new face to the Christian music scene: a singer/songwriter/worship leader living in Kansas City. He lives among and serves Heartland Community Church as the worship director for the Gathering, a spirited community of 20-somethings rising into their call to be sent into the world as friends of Jesus Christ. Together they are joining a growing movement of young adults determined to use what resources they have to help make wrong things right in the world.

"I believe the history books will record that this generation had a passion for three things: worship, prayer, and justice," Jon says, "...these are the things that I want to give my life to."

Jon's second CD entitled Heaven Hear Us was released in October of 2006, and documents the Gathering's journey through 2004-2006 in songs and confessions through original songs. He and his wife, Alissa, are both "Advocates" through Food for the Hungry, and have traveled to Zeway, Ethiopia to visit their sponsored children. They plan on returning in March of 2008.

Thanks Friends for praying for our friends in South Africa. The report is that the officer actually apologized, and the guy they had the incident actually did not even show up for the meeting. Thanks for praying! God is faithful.
