Senior Pastor
Jeff Hill
Director of U-Turn for Christ Colorado
My name is Jeff and my sole purpose in life is to serve and bring glory to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I came to U-Turn for Christ in March of 1998. My life was broken and defeated because of years of drug abuse and selfish living. I will never forget sitting in the office at the U-Turn ranch in Perris, CA and just having this feeling of complete surrender and no longer wanting to live my life as an enemy to God. I remember praying to God - please forgive me and in your grace take my life and do with it as you please. I’m sorry for not trusting you before. Please use me as you desire. This place of brokenness and surrender brought me to a position where God was now able to work in me and through me. God has been so faithful and has led me to a life of servant-hood doing His will - not mine.
I am thankful for Pastor Gerry Brown and his obedience to the Lord for starting a ministry like U-Turn for Christ that has inspired me to take on the call to carry that same vision that I might also see many more men be transformed, as I was, into servants of Christ
Associate Pastor
Charlie Salic
Manager of U-Turn for Christ Colorado
Charlie, originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota, relocated to Colorado in 2010 seeking a new beginning, but soon found himself entangled in the same destructive patterns. After a period of time in prison, he resolved to change his life for good and sought help at U-Turn for Christ, a residential discipleship ministry for individuals struggling with addiction.
During his time in the ministry, Charlie underwent a profound transformation, discovering a deep and personal love for the Lord. He successfully completed the two-phase program and chose to remain with the ministry, transitioning into a leadership role. He now serves as an associate pastor and mentor, overseeing the daily activities of the men at the U-Turn for Christ ranch and guiding them on their own journeys to recovery and faith. His personal experience allows him to offer a unique blend of empathy, understanding, and biblical guidance to those who are following the same path he once walked.
