About

My name is Randy Jones, and I am honored to serve as the President of RJ's Friends for Life Services, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting individuals with physical and mental challenges, the homeless, and those in need of a second chance at life.

I was born and raised in Terrell, Texas, and from a young age, I felt a deep calling to help people—especially those society often overlooks. That passion has guided every step of my journey.

For more than 15 years, I’ve served as the Senior Pastor of Burning Bush Worship Center in Dallas, Texas, where I’ve led with compassion, faith, and a heart for service. I also co-founded New Life Placement Center, a support network for veterans and individuals with special needs, helping them find stability and dignity through community support.

While studying at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas, I was offered a position as a QMRP (Qualified Mental Retardation Professional) at the Lubbock State School, where I spent over five years working hands-on with individuals facing both physical and developmental challenges. That experience deepened my commitment to advocacy and personal care.

I believe every person deserves the opportunity to live a full, meaningful life—regardless of their background or limitations. Through RJ’s Friends for Life Services, it is my mission to create hope, restore dignity, and build pathways to a better future for those who need it most.

Thank you for joining us in this vision. Together, we can make a lasting difference.

"The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others."
— Mahatma Gandhi
