Jason Mueller
Board Member
As an active-duty Marine, a veteran, and throughout my pastorship, I have felt a calling to serve. As a Marine, my calling was to serve our country and to protect our freedoms. This level of service and commitment involves sacrifices in all aspects of life – both as an individual and as a family. Devastatingly, it could also involve the ultimate sacrifice of one’s life to protect these freedoms.
After being honorably discharged in May of 2001, I followed God’s calling to continue to serve others by becoming a pastor. The calling came to me during my deployment in 1998 while in the deserts of Kuwait. My passion was to faithfully serve a community and to spread God’s Word, but I had a more deeply rooted passion to serve and support those who have worn the uniform in defense of our country and freedoms.
In 2021, God provided me the opportunity to meet Steve Wingfield, evangelist and CEO of Wingfield Ministries, Inc. Steve challenged me to step out in faith and fulfill my passion to serve and support active and Reserve military service members, veterans, and their families (spouses, children, parents, and siblings). Collectively, they can be best described as our “warriors.” I started R.A.W. as a way to fulfill my calling. After meeting Rick, we decided that R.A.W. could be better served as a program within the Vets on Track Foundation. It is my desire that through R.A.W. everyone will discover hope, healing, and their individual purpose.
