About

Jon Clement -Grants Pass, Oregon 2022, 

Jon Clement grew up in Portland, Oregon and attended Catholic church as a child. He was a typical baby-boomer child of alcoholic parents, got into the usual trouble unsaved kids get into, due to sin. He attended various churches in his early 20s, but didn’t become saved until 1994, through a Baptist Church in Klamath Falls. After hearing sermons on sin, Hell, the wrath of God, and judgment, and that God could save him from his sins through Jesus Christ, he cried out to Him on the evening of January 22, ’94.                                                                                                                                                       

He immediately began witnessing to others about what Jesus had done, but with no real effective evangelism training. Jon “lead several people to the Lord”, only later to find they were only false converts. His passion and burden for lost souls grew over the years, but it wasn’t until his friend Greg Beals introduced him to Biblical evangelism via The Way of The Master, using the Law before the gospel, that he began to understand more about evangelism. In 2008, Jon began a Facebook page called RV Rogue Valley Saltshakers as a means to keep evangelistic 

friends in touch with local outreaches. Since then, the page has been used to post helpful evangelistic 

and apologetic articles, videos, and even memes to communicate Biblical truth, as well as continuing to post events and invite saints to participate in outreaches at fairs, concerts, abortion outreaches, LGBT outreaches, and evangelism related training events and classes.

Jon has grown more excited about open air preaching, after attending Living Waters’ Ambassadors Academy in August 2017, where he received some great training and coaching by the staff, then getting more training and experience through SFOI. Jon’s trip to Mexico City, to preach at the football game and on the streets, kindled his desire to become fluent in Spanish one day, to preach more in Spanish, and return to Mexico, and even Ecuador to evangelize with friends in those places.He hopes this SFOI SBO outreach will be a great time of growth in the area of open-air preaching, by observing more seasoned preachers in action, and hearing teaching on the subject. Jon has been married to Leanne since July of 1998, and they have a 6 year old chocolate lab named Chelsea. Leanne and Jon attend a Church called Ekklesia in Grants Pass, where Jon and others lead WOTM evangelism training classes and hold evangelism workshops to train and equip the saints for 

reaching the lost.
