RevRichard@MOFonline.org

Dr. Richard Hamlet, Founder and President/CEO of Ministry Outreach Foundation (MOF), is a Wall Street trained financial professional with decades of experience working in the Capital markets. He has a burning passion for those practitioners in the “ marketplace” who need to hear the saving gospel of Jesus and the hope we can find in Jesus Christ. In 2004 he and his wife, Ginger, co-founded MOF, which actively invests in “Business as Missions” platforms in Real Estate and Christian Media.

Since his call to pastoral ministry in 1997, Dr. Hamlet has served as a pastor in churches across Tennessee, Georgia, and Mississippi. He currently serves at East Acres Baptist Church in Millington, TN.

Additionally, as an international evangelist, he has ministered in nearly 100 countries, preaching the saving Gospel of Christ through different outreach platforms, and training pastors in those countries. In countries closed to the gospel, he used creative strategies to advance the gospel to reach the lost through non-traditional means.
