A native of Elberton, Georgia, Dennis been a friend with Jim Horne for years. He went to Kindergarten with Jim, played Little League Baseball, umpired Little League games, and they graduated from the same High School. While attending separate Colleges, Jim and Dennis both came to Christ. God then led them to Bible College calling them into Ministry.



At Tennessee Temple Dennis met his wife Mona and they we married in June of 1995. Shortly after, Jim and his wife Susie headed off to Kenya to begin their phenomenal work. Dennis and Mona have been privileged to give financially to them monthly since they began in Kenya. 



Through the years the churches Dennis served in have supported the Horne’s many endeavors in Kenya. It has been a joy to see all that God has done and is doing. Their hearts have been blessed by lives that have been radically changed by the amazing work there.



Dennis is honored to serve on the OGH Board. His passion and what he oversees on behalf of OGH at Southside Baptist Church is child sponsorship for TIWI Academy. Once a year Southside has Operation Give Hope Sunday in an effort to build the child sponsor base.
