Jarred & Hannah Hepler
Pastor Jarred
Jarred is the Lead Pastor of Stafford Fellowship. He and his wife, Hannah, moved to Stafford, Virginia in 2018, where he has served in pastoral ministry and invested deeply in the life of the local church. Jarred’s preaching and leadership are shaped by a deep love for Scripture and a conviction that God works most powerfully through His Word when it is carefully explained and faithfully applied to everyday life.
Jarred is committed to patient, long-term ministry rather than quick results or passing trends. He believes the church is formed through steady teaching, prayer, discipleship, and meaningful community, and he seeks to lead in ways that bring clarity, stability, and spiritual growth. His heart is to help people understand the Bible, grow in confidence in God’s truth, and walk faithfully with Christ through every season of life.
At the core of Jarred’s ministry is a deep love for the local church. He views the church not as a platform or program, but as a spiritual family shaped by God’s Word and called to live distinctly in the world. His desire is to help form believers whose faith is grounded, enduring, and lived out with integrity in ordinary life.

Hannah serves alongside Jarred and brings a steady presence of care, encouragement, and joy to the life of the church. She has spent many years investing in discipleship and mentoring, particularly with students and young women, and is deeply committed to helping others grow in their love for Christ and His Word.
At Stafford Fellowship, Hannah plays a key role in organizing and leading the children’s ministry, helping create a welcoming and thoughtful environment for families. She also serves as an FCA Area Representative and brings experience in teaching, leadership, and relational ministry. Her ability to combine organization with genuine warmth helps foster a sense of belonging and care within the church.
Hannah is known for her attentiveness to people and her excitement about what God is doing among His people. She and Jarred serve together with unity and shared purpose, honoring distinct roles while sharing a common vision for the church. Together, they seek to model a ministry shaped by faithfulness, presence, and love for Christ and His church.
