Today we’d like to introduce you to Jay Gardner
Jay, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
My name is Jay Gardner. In my younger days I was in the Navy, had a beautiful wife with w children and ordained into the ministry, My life took a drastic change ! I felt God had taken his hands off me and I turned to drugs and alcohol to cope with life. I went on a theft binge and found myself incarcerated for 20 years. While incarcerated I was given a vision from God. The vision was of torn and ripped pieces of paper uniquely crafted into a beautiful bracelet and a radiant message of his hope peace and strength to prevail. Now 7 years of free man, that vision has turned into an incredible non-profit named Tornpages. My wife and I have dedicated our lives to Sharing Gods Hope, Peace and Strength to many thru these beautiful gifts, and message…Tornpages is Impacting lives and making a positive difference in a world do broken…
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
As any type of ministry work, Tornpages is no different. We’re a self supporting organization, depending on donors, sponsorship and partnerships with other like minded organizations…
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
We share my story and Tornpages to many youth organizations, help men with prison re-entry resources, and support homeless Veteran…
Is there any advice you’d like to share with our readers who might just be starting out?
The mission of Tornpages was a gift from God…I am meant to share his restoration of our lives thru my personal story.
