(Click on a staff photo for a fun photo surprise!)

Kelly James

Executive Director

Mission Hills – North Littleton 

I recently joined Love INC where I get to combine several things I love: faith, community, relationships, and meaningful work. I’m married to McCory, and we have two sons, Landon and Carson. Outside the office, I’m happiest exploring somewhere new, hiking a Colorado trail, attending a concert, or getting completely absorbed in a good book. I’m also a devoted Denver Nuggets fan and firmly believe tacos and pizza are always a good idea!

Terry Bate

Director of Ministry Operations

Deer Creek Church 

I served as a volunteer before joining staff 7 years ago. I love supporting the Operations team & and our amazing volunteers. I have been married to my college sweetheart, Julia, for 41 years. We have 2 sons, Brandon who is a Counselor and an Ai voice over talent and married to Megan, a Teacher. Our other son is Boomer who is an entrepreneur specializing in digital sound products for filmmakers & is married to Sarah, who is a live wedding painter. They are parents to our first grandchild, Atlas Wilder. We are also puppy parents to Bailey, our incorrigible Wheaten terrier. My wife and I love to travel and like to hike, ATV and kayak right here in beautiful CO. We are also diehard Denver sports fans! I love to collect driftwood and create “terry’s terrariums” as gifts. One fun fact about me: I have Tri-Citizenship, through my Father who is British, my Mother who is Canadian and my Wife, who is American.

Ann Donelson

Director of Connection Ministries

Flatirons Church

Being here nearly 10 years, I‘ve worn many hats with Love INC but my favorite role is always working beside our amazing volunteers!  Having spent many planting and harvest seasons on the family farm, I’m a country girl at heart and wish I could have horses and cows in my backyard! I love Jesus and cherish every minute of family time whether it’s camping, crafting, celebrating, or simply being together. 

Shanon Anderson

Connection Center Coordinator

Calvary South Denver

Although I have only been with Love INC a short time, I’m incredibly grateful to be part of an organization whose mission aligns so closely with my faith and passion for serving others. Outside of Love INC, I’m blessed with a wonderful husband, Roy, and two amazing daughters. As a family, we love drag racing and spending time together. One fun thing you should know about me—I LOVE moose! 🫎 I have quite the moose collection, including stuffed animals, photos, and figurines. They’ve definitely become a fun part of who I am! 

Stacey Brand

Manager of Transformational Ministry

Foothills Bible Church

I have been on staff for almost 3 years and volunteered for 2 years before that. I have loved time in the IMPACT classrooms and witnessing the “aha” moments. Billy and I have been married for 24 years and have two daughters, one in high school and one in college. I love Colorado and enjoy a little gardening. The more flowers in the garden the better, because they distract from the battle with the weeds.

Cynthia Dillon

Manager of Transformational Ministry

Mission Hills Church

I co-lead the Love INC Transformational Ministry. Walking alongside our participants as they take steps forward and discover all that God has for them makes my heart very happy. Outside of work, I love spending time with my family and our husky, Stormi, who definitely keeps life interesting! Learning to line dance is my current passion (and challenge). I mean, who doesn’t love a good pair of boots? I also love to travel and discover beautiful places, as well as simple things like long walks with friends, good conversations, and plenty of laughter along the way. 

Sonja George

Assistant Store Manager

Notre Dame Catholic Church

I have been the Assistant Manager at the store for a little over a year. I really enjoy the volunteers and seeing all the wonderful treasures that are donated. I’m married to a wonderful man named Darren and  have 4 wonderful kids: Justin, 31, Jayson, 27, Jaxon 20, Darian 19.  2 dogs . I’m a 5th generation native of Colorado. Things that make me uniquely me: I am the only girl in a family of 7. I love Mexican food. I spent 3 months in Spain when I was 16. Also, I’m a HUGE Dallas Cowboy fan.

Linda Jones

Manager of Resale Ministry

Valley View Christian Church

I have been at Renewed Treasures for 7.5 years and am a retired Registered Nurse. From the very first day at R.T., I knew this was where God wanted me. I love the mission, volunteers, staff, and customers. I couldn’t be happier. I have three children – E’lan, Duffy, (in heaven), and Dean – 3  grandchildren and 1 great granddaughter.  I have two cats and my most wonderful treasure that I found at R.T. is my husband, William. I love to go for walks, travel, read and create something from nothing.  Mostly, I love to make cards.  I enjoy having my devotions in the early morning on the deck and use my bird app to record the birds that are singing in my yard. I have been in all 50 states and enjoy seeing the beautiful countryside God has created. I am so blessed and thank God for all of my friends.
