“By divine design, God chooses men and women to carry out His will and purposes throughout the earth. One of His choice servants is Sheila Harper. Through Sheila's own personal journey, God has developed a very effective ministry called SaveOne, that is literally making a world-wide impact. A SaveOne Chapter is a strategic recovery group that can produce healing and restoration for many in your ministry and community who are silently dealing with the emotional pain that follows the most unfortunate choice of an abortion. Post Abortion Syndrome (PAS) is growing epidemic, but there is transformational hope available. Participants in SaveOne will discover a new freedom from guilt and anxiety. Start a SaveOne chapter today!”

SUBJECT: Personal Endorsement for Jack Harper
I have known Jack Harper for over 45 years and I am always in awe of how God uses his life to minister to the hurting and downtrodden. Jack’s ministry is one that is unparalleled in today’s time. His faith and trust in the paths that God leads him is what books are written about. As I witness the Hand of God working in the lives Jack and Sheila Harper and the ministry of SaveOne it humbles me to witness God’s grace lived out in their love of hurting people. Jack’s mercy for those that need God’s love is what draws the sinner to the love of Jesus Christ by allowing those that have reached their lowest points to see God’s true heart. A heart of forgiveness. I am blessed to have Jack Harper call me friend.Christian L. Goza

Vonetta Carter, understands prayer ushers in Holy Spirit power. She passionately intercedes for others, praying and declaring the Father's heart into every situation. Motivational by nature, she encourages and exhorts the Church body, through public speaking as well as through personal coaching. Ministering to women, from every walk of life, is a call Vonetta commits to wholeheartedly. She understands, from her own experience, how God desires his children to be whole, and to thrive in every facet of their lives- mentally, spiritually, emotionally, physically, and financially. Vonetta has overcome tremendous trials in her own life enabling her to walk others out of those same situations.
A chapter coordinator for Save One, Vonetta meets the abortion-wounded, with an open heart and extended hand in their brokenness. With empathy from her own abortion loss, Vonetta shares her story with the liberating truth of God's word setting captives free.Vonetta's candid transparency and journey paint a picture of how God begins work in each of us that he promises to bring to completion. She is wife to Veronne, and has a beautifully blended family of five young adults, as well as three middle school girls. Her three precious grandchildren are a reflection to her of God’s redeeming love.

We recently invited Vonetta as a keynote speaker at our “Saved by the Thorn Event”. Vonetta was very relatable and personable, making it easy for those in attendance to open their ears and their hearts to the message she was sharing. She delivered a message of hope, love and compassion that is found in Christ. She is clearly genuine in every regard, also entertaining, insightful, educational and engaging. When you hear Vonetta speak and get to know her as a person, you fully realize that there is nothing artificial about her-- it truly comes from her heart and her relationship with Christ. The numerous post event comments confirmed that Vonetta was not only a great speaker but that she made a lasting impact on the lives that were there.

I met Vonetta years ago when we shared the stage at the "Ball in the Fall" event. Since then, I have found her to be a person of integrity and a highly caring woman of God.
Vonetta has served on my Godfidence Today podcast as a panelist several times. In addition, she is on my speaking team for Godfidence conferences for tweens, teens, and mothers. Her servant's heart has been an asset to the team. Vonetta always stays within the given time allowed and is sensitive to the audience's needs.

I am writing to let you know how amazing Vonetta Carter is as a person, speaker and woman of God. She is one of the most genuine individuals I have ever met. She is a powerful speaker and very anointed. She hears from the Lord and does not hold back. I have had the pleasure of having her speak at 4 of my events for ladies ranging from 250-600 in attendance. The audience has always loved her and looked forward to hearing her speak. She has always been faithful to the assignment and has done what was asked of her. She was happy to jump in and pray for the ladies at the altar and to also pray for the other leaders as well as the events.
She will make a nice addition to your speaker lineup and will surely deliver!

Jennifer Crawford Endorsements
Jen was amazing to work with and brought a very nice display to promote Save One at our kickoff.
Her presentation was heartfelt and professional all at the same time. I know that she had a major impact on our audience in helping them understand the heart of the abortion vulnerable woman and the post abortive woman.
She represented Save One in a very encouraging way. It was inspiring to hear about the Save One ministry from Jen.
Thank you for your ministry!

Timothy Hall was raised in a Christian home, he comes from a long legacy as a fourth generation Christian in his family. Timothy is an entrepreneur, singer, songwriter, and international speaker. Most importantly, he and Kristy have been married for 22 years and they have five incredible sons.
While in university, Timothy made some unwise decisions which led into a relationship that abruptly ended because of an abortion. Thankfully, God led him to a church that offered abortion recovery. In 2001, he was the first man to complete the SaveOne program. He found forgiveness, liberty from guilt and shame, and freedom from pornography. God put a strong call in his life to use his testimony to help others.
In 2004, Timothy’s job transferred him to Europe and he moved his family to Slovenia. There they saw a great need for others to find the same freedom he had found after abortion. The Halls then registered SaveOne Europe as an NGO and began starting chapters in Europe. In 2009, they were transferred to China and started SaveOne in China, turning over the leadership of SaveOne Europe. In 2012 they moved back to the states and are currently living in Michigan. Today he and his wife Kristy, are the International Liaisons for SaveOne.

TIMOTHY HALL
We have known Tim and Kristy for some years now. They love the Lord deeply, walk in integrity and have raised a Christ-honoring family. They have a proven record of service on the mission field as well as in their local church. Tim will prove a blessing as an inspiring and Bible-based speaker.
David Campbell
Teacher. Author. Church Founder.
Tim has amazing passion and commitment levels to what he does. His concern for others who need to hear the message of SaveOne and receive their healing from the Lord, cannot be measured. His contribution during the SaveOne South Africa launch was appreciated by all who heard him.
Tim speaks with clarity, gentleness of spirit, eloquence, full appreciation of the subject matter, understanding of the human condition before and after healing from the effects of abortion, commendable flow of information, and a palpable love for the Lord.
I have no hesitation in endorsing him as a speaker and would wish him all the best in that role. I would also hope that the selection into the team does not mean that we will lose his input in our infant stages of development as SaveOne South Africa.
Mpho Masienyane-Khauoe
SaveOne SA
I know Timothy’s passion for the vision of SaveOne and his involvement in the ministry around the world. I have seen his heart toward helping others recover from the post abortion experience. Even in our own church, our members who have received ministry from Tim and Kristy in this area, so many lives impacted and transformed by the grace of God from their efforts.
Timothy’s experience and passion shine through in his own testimony. Any time we have an opportunity to have him share her on this topic he excels!

WENDI RAWLS BIO
Wendi Rawls joined the SaveOne team in July 2022 as a Chapter Coordinator and is currently itinerating as an AGUS Missionary Associate in order to transition over to a full-time role with SaveOne. Wendi had the amazing privilege of meeting Jack & Sheila Harper in 2021 when they spoke at a local conference. As she listened to their heart's desire of helping those who are abortion wounded, it started to become a passion in her own heart. Wendi knew that even though she had asked the Lord for forgiveness for having an abortion in 2007, that she had never really forgiven herself.
Wendi had the privilege of completing the SaveOne Bible Study and found the spiritual healing she desperately desired but never knew how to attain. She graduated from the SaveOne Program on December 27, 2021 and proudly proclaims that she is FREE! As a Regent University graduate, Assemblies of God Licensed Minister, endorsed AGUS Chaplain, and Pro Life Missionary to the Potomac Network for SaveOne, Wendi plans to use her giftings and talents to glorify the Lord and help hurting and lost people find a gracious and loving Saviour. She could not do this without the support of her amazing husband; Tyler and their three boys; Jaxon, Camdyn, and Brysen.
If you are with Wendi then you are most likely doing one of her favorite things which include eating dark chocolate, laughing, traveling, drinking iced coffee, spending time outdoors, singing, eating good food, baking, or sitting by the ocean. This is a new season and Wendi is expecting BIG things as she trusts God with every step and direction of her path. {1 Peter 5:10}

Today, she continues to walk in her calling as the full-time personal assistant to Jack and Sheila Harper, as well as serving as a trainer and member of the SaveOne speaking team.
Long before joining the staff, Sonya experienced firsthand the life-changing healing that comes through SaveOne’s Bible study, as she walked through her own journey of recovery from a past abortion. Because of that personal healing, she carries a heart full of compassion and a deep desire to see others set free. Sonya is passionate about SaveOne’s mission to bring hope, healing, and restoration to women and men around the world. She is a bold advocate for life and looks forward to the day when abortion is no longer seen as an option.
In addition to her work with SaveOne, Sonya and her husband, Chris, serve together in evangelistic ministry, helping local churches through worship and the Word. She has been honored to lead worship and share her testimony at My Sister’s Keeper women’s conferences, as well as at churches and special events where she proclaims the power of God’s love and forgiveness.

Sonya Wiley’s story is one of absolute amazing grace. I had the privilege to serve with her over ten years in the Tennessee Ministry Network office. Now the Lord is using her through the powerful ministry of SaveOne. I highly recommend Sonya to you!
Terry Bailey
TN District Superintendent
I serve as the Tennessee AG youth director. Sonya Wiley was the primary assistant in my department for years. During that time we had the privilege of getting to know Sonya and forging a friendship. It has been a joy to watch her faith journey, especially as she has stepped into her calling and passion with SaveOne. She has a powerful testimony of God’s redemptive work, not just to be healed of pain, but to walk toward wholeness. Sonya is a voice that needs to be amplified and heard. She is a gift to the body of Christ and I am thrilled to see her being positioned for such a time as this. I strongly endorse Sonya, as a person and as a minister of the restorative work of Jesus.
