Ken Craft, President and CEO of Hope of the Valley Rescue Mission
A pastor who brings a unique blend of business and ministry, Ken Craft.
Having served nearly 20 years as a pastor, 6 years with a Fortune 500 company and another 8 years as a Mission Director of a homeless shelter, he is committed to engaging his heart and head when it comes to overseeing the work of the Mission.

His passion is to help “the least of these” and assist them on the road to recovery. Ken has been blessed with three children.
