about JOHN

John has been serving with RUF since 2019, first as the Campus Minister at Valdosta State University, and now as the Campus Minister at UT Tyler. He is originally from Louisville, GA and is a graduate of the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs!) He was heavily impacted by the ministry of RUF and Redeemer PCA as a student at UGA. John studied History during college, played lots of ultimate frisbee with RUF friends, and attended many football games cheering on the Dawgs. After graduation, he worked in banking in both Athens and Augusta, GA. During this time, he met his wife Sarah, while she was working as a nurse, through some common friends that they knew from RUF. They were married in 2009. In 2011, sensing a call to ministry, the Gordy’s moved to St. Louis, MO where John graduated from Covenant Theological Seminary in 2014. John ministered to students while serving in youth ministry at churches in Decatur, AL, and Rochester, MN after seminary. The Gordys have two girls, Grace and Charlotte.

John is excited about ministry on the UT-Tyler campus and learning more about the great state of Texas!
