  • Rachel Peck is the Executive Director of 431 Ministries. She and her husband, Justin, originally founded 431 after the Lord opened their eyes to the need for women's crisis support in the community.

    Her work has fueled exponential, sustainable growth—now serving over 200 unique women per year—and has drawn national and international attention. Organizations from Pennsylvania, New York, and even Australia have sought her mentorship to replicate her unique approach in their own communities.

    Rachel is a respected speaker, strategist, and advocate for women often left out of traditional systems. She created tools like the Re:Store Me Assessment© to track holistic progress across life and employment goals, and regularly trains leaders in nonprofit governance and client-centered program design. She lives in Middle Tennessee with her husband and two daughters and spends her time writing, mentoring, and tending to their family farm.

She has a deep love for organization and support and makes a cheerful first impression on anyone who connects with 431 through phone, email or the front door. Her heart is especially for the moms who balance all the things while going through hardships.

  • Robin has been in the Spring Hill area since 1999. She has been active in her community and local church for over 2 decades, and having established deep roots in the Middle TN area, loves that she gets to call Middle TN home. Robin’s background is in nursing and she has had a long career in neonatal and women’s health. 

    Robin joined 431 Ministries in April 2025 as a Client Advocate with a desire to continue caring and advocating for women, but on a much deeper and personal level.

    When not at work, Robin enjoys taking long walks, being outside, traveling with her family, and spending as much time as possible with her husband and two young adult sons.

  • Kelly Garrison moved to Spring Hill in 2003 and spent nearly 19 years on staff at WellSpring Christian Church, where she learned firsthand what it means to help people follow Jesus. She is married to her husband, Jon, and together they have been married for 22 years and are raising two boys who keep life full and busy.

    Kelly is passionate about worship and connecting with women and continues to serve her church by leading worship and being part of the women’s leadership team. In January 2026, she stepped on staff at 431 as the organization’s second Client Advocate.

    While Kelly has spent many years in ministry, she sensed God leading her into a deeper calling—one centered on speaking the love of Jesus into the broken hearts of women and affirming their God-given worth as image bearers of Him. She is honored to live out that calling through her work at 431.

  • Jenn Burns is the Office Manager at 431 Ministries, bringing both heart and organization to a mission she deeply believes in. Before stepping into ministry work, Jenn spent over 20 years in education as a dedicated teacher and administrator, shaping minds and lives with compassion and purpose.

    For the past 18 years, she has called Columbia, Tennessee home, where she lives with her husband Earl. Together, they’ve raised two grown children and built a life rooted in faith, family, and community.

    Jenn has a deep love for reading, gardening, and traveling — but her greatest passion is walking alongside others as they grow personally and spiritually. Whether in the classroom or in ministry, she’s always been drawn to helping people flourish and find their path.

  • Hi, my name is Ryan Vick. I currently serve as an Intake Specialist with 431 Ministries, where I have the privilege of helping women restore their self-worth, confidence, and sense of purpose through faith-centered personal development. I also serve as Executive Assistant at The Well Church in Columbia, Tennessee, supporting leadership and operational initiatives that strengthen the church’s ministry and community impact.

    I am the mother of five children and deeply love the Lord. 431 Ministries is not only a ministry I care deeply about—it has also had a profound impact on my own life. I first experienced the program as a participant of the the Known Seen Loved Stages, where I encountered healing, community, and restoration.

    Today, it is an honor to share my story and walk alongside women who desire real change in their lives. I am passionate about helping others discover that through faith, support, and community, healing and restoration are possible.

  • Cindy Payne is an Intake Specialist with 431 Ministries. She was born and raised in Franklin, Tennessee, where she lives with her husband, John, and their three boys. As a family, they enjoy watching movies together and traveling whenever possible.

    Cindy was shaped by strong, loving women in her family—her mother, aunt, and grandmother—who played a meaningful role in raising her and helping form the values she carries today. Their influence instilled in her a deep sense of compassion, resilience, and care for others.

    With a professional background in Nutrition and Wellness and Group benefits, Cindy brings strong listening skills, clarity, and a supportive presence to her role. She values community, volunteering, and walking alongside others with empathy and respect.

    Justin and Rachel Peck

    FOUNDERS

    Together, Justin (Board Member) and Rachel Peck (President) are the Founders of 431 Ministries and Rachel currently serves as the Executive Director and Board President.

    Their journey all started with a prayer, “Break our hearts for what breaks yours.” This prayer led to an invitation for a single mom and her daughter to share their 700-sq ft home. For the 9 months they lived together, the kitchen became the training ground, and the living room a place of hope. Discipleship was done over the phone while running errands, and side-by-side while doing farm chores. 

    In 2018, the needs expanded and 431 Ministries was formed as a 501(c)(3) organization, building on the work that was started with a single "yes."

    The women that showed up to their ministry came from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. But God showed up. And as hearts believed, lives were changed. 

    Today, more than 900 women have reached out for help and been served with 1:1 Coaching, Group Classes, and large outreach events to live out the mission of offering hope and a plan for an independent future.

    Justin and Rachel have been married for 12 years and have two young daughters.

    Miranda Yoder

    BOARD SECRETARY

    After walking through a painful divorce just after college, Miranda experienced some of the most impactful growth and healing through the study of God’s word and being grounded in Biblical community. Her heart is now with women who’ve walked through hardship and her hope is that each woman can find healing, restoration, and independence through a series of positive decisions and time spent in community, ultimately finding hope through an immovable faith in Jesus Christ.

    Miranda has served alongside her husband Russell in his pastoral ministry in the Bon Aqua and Spring Hill, TN areas since 2014 in varying capacities. She’s been a Sunday School teacher, ladies group leader and has also led several Bible studies. She loves the Word of God and is a lifetime student of scripture.

    Professionally, Miranda had a 13-year career in Healthcare IT before moving into Digital Product Management in 2021. In her free time, she enjoys diving into a good book, game nights with friends, and traveling with her husband of almost 18 years. Miranda, Russell and their two miniature dachshunds live in Spring Hill.

    Miranda has been a volunteer with 431 since 2021, helping women with their budgets and resumes and, as of 2024 a side-by-side mentor and board member.

    Josh and Kim Kolstad

    BOARD MEMBERS

    Josh and Kim have always had a strong desire to serve the local church, youth, and their community. This is motivated by a desire for all to experience God’s love and protection, even in the midst of difficulty. 

    Josh has served in law enforcement for the past 23 years and teaches parenting classes at the county jail. Kim was a junior high teacher and girls’ basketball coach and served on the leadership team of her county’s foster support group, with an emphasis on advocating for children with special needs. Together, they are actively involved in the foster and adoption community, having fostered children for twelve years and adopted three.

    Being involved in the foster community strengthened their aspirations to advocate not only the children affected by crisis, but also their parents and caretakers.  This brought them to serve at 431 Ministries, where they could point those coming out of crisis to the One who perfectly knows, sees, and loves each of us. 

    Josh and Kim Kolstad have been married for 22 years and have four children. 

    Josh and Kim Kolstad have served on the Board of Directors since July 2023.
