The Jungs live in Singapore where Jarred is a professor of theology at East Asia School of Theology (EAST). EAST trains pastors and gospel ministers from throughout Asia to prepare them for a lifetime of Great Commission ministry. Many EAST students come from theologically under-resourced areas where theological and pastoral training is scarce, and many EAST graduates return to minister in environments where Christianity exists on the fringes of society, often as a persecuted religion. EAST aims to prepare them for a lifetime of ministry in these environments.

Autumn Ridge Community Church leverages both finances and personnel in support of the annual Operation Christmas Child endeavor of Samaritan's Purse. The church works together to pack and prepare "shoeboxes," which Samaritan's Purse calls "Gospel Opportunities." We also provide empty ones so that church families and the larger Gilmer Co. community can also pack boxes to bring the Good News of Christmas to children, families, and communities around the globe.
Children who receive these boxes are invited to a six-week discipleship study, and receive the Good News About Jesus in their heart languages. This aim aligns with our church's mission to train people to "learn, love, and live out the gospel in our lives, in our community, and to the ends of the earth..."

Dr. John Morrison oversaw Pastor Davis’ church planting residency at Lakewood Baptist Church in Gainesville, GA. Later, as he, his wife Dori, and their children attended one of Autumn Ridge Community Church’s worship gatherings, the Lord laid it on the Morrisons’ hearts to plant a new church in their home state of North Carolina. The Morrison family presently lives in Hickory, North Carolina, where John serves as the church-planting pastor for Christ the King.
