Jonathan Amadio
Board member since 2023
Hope4theOrphan (H4tO)/Themba
Jonathan first became involved with H4tO through its partner organization, African Outreach Ministries, led by Scott and Lisa Harris. Through their ministry and partnership, he was forever touched by the people of Mozambique and South Africa and hopes to go back one day with his family. Once AOM finished its mission to “plant churches that plant churches,” Jonathan wanted to continue to serve and be a part of the legacy Allen and Janelle Avery began decades ago and partner with H4tO. Jonathan feels strongly in the call Jesus places on all believers – to live sacrificially to honor God and grow His kingdom.
Jonathan earned a B.S. in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology from Houston Christian University. A former scientist, he now works in laboratory software sales.
Jonathan is married to his high school sweetheart, Patricia, and they have three daughters, Julianna, Sophia, and Valerie. In his free time, he likes watching the Houston Astros, soccer, Formula 1, and training for half-marathons.
Jonathan is an elder at The Sanctuary Fellowship in Richmond, TX.
