Jeremy and Carolyn serve through community outreach in the mountainous region of eastern Kentucky. Their heart is to stay connected with children and youth and have a lasting impact on the community for Christ. They spend most of their ministry time in three areas: evangelism/discipleship, youth ministry, and school/sports ministry.
Eastern Kentucky is a mountainous region right in the Bible Belt. The church is a tradition in Kentucky culture; however, many do not understand what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
There are several issues in the community such as generational poverty, drug abuse, joblessness, and obesity which have plagued the area for years. Jeremy and Carolyn's heart is to reach and stand in the gap for those in the most troubling circumstances.
After seeing the lost souls and the brokenness in eastern Kentucky, it became clear to the Holts that they needed to start reaching out to their community. Jeremy pursues at-risk youth through school, sports, and youth ministry with the hopes of leading them to Christ and helping them become more like Christ. Carolyn has a passion to come alongside young children in the school setting to minister to them through one-on-one mentorship, daily interactions that bring hope and living the example of a Christ-centered life.
Along with reaching youth, Jeremy and Carolyn plan to assist churches who are struggling to find leadership, teach classes at a Christian school, and get involved with summer camp ministry.
The Holts have served as InFaith field staff since 2019.
Jeremy was born and raised in central Minnesota with his three sisters by his loving parents. He became an approved candidate with InFaith in 2019.
Carolyn was raised in a Christian military family and is grateful for the many experiences that she had going to different places and meeting different people. Carolyn became an approved candidate with InFaith in 2020.
Jeremy has achieved his masters degree in Spiritual Formation and Discipleship and Carolyn is pursuing her masters in Christian Counseling.

Donate to Jeremy and Carolyn Holt’s Camper Scholarship Fund. Bible camp can be a life-changing experience. When young people get away from their electronics for a week and are surrounded by loving staff and biblical teaching, it becomes the perfect environment for them to do business with God. For $120 you can send a young person to camp who may not be able to afford it; however, if you are unable to give that much, know that anything helps!
Donate to Jeremy and Carolyn Holt’s Families in Need Fund. Many children in Eastern Kentucky are in adoptive or noncustodial situations. Many brave grandparents or aunts and uncles have stepped up to take on the burdens of raising kids that are not their own. We love being able to bless families like this when they have needs. If the Lord leads you to make a donation to this fund, we would love to share with you how God led us to use your funds. Thank you for your consideration!
