JESSE DUKES
CO-FOUNDER
Hello, I’m Jesse Dukes, husband of Keight (K8), father of Judah, Layla, and Noa. I’ve lived in Senoia since 2006, grew up in Fayetteville, graduated from Sandy Creek High School in 2001, and graduated from Georgia Institute of Technology in 2005. I’m a self-professed Bible nerd and love reading of all sorts.
I’ve also been known to play guitar, talk about CrossFit, drink coffee, eat gauc, guess people’s Enneagram type, listen to podcasts, and work on finishing my Masters in Counseling from Messiah College.
At The Gathering People, I work side by side with organizations. Jesus came into my life at an early age and has continued to rock my world year after year. My life is dedicated to serving Him and helping people grow in His love.
KATIE RAY
CO-FOUNDER
Hey guys! I’m Katie. I’m so glad you’re here! I hope you’ve instantly felt so loved and know you belong.
​
I’m a Mama of 4, ranging from teenager to toddler, a coach's wife, fresh coffee snob, Enneagram 3, lover of the underdog, and secret introvert. Most of the time, you'll find me being a cheerleader. I’m the embarrassing friend on the sidelines cheering people to greatness. I disciple & steward others to get out of their comfort zone and use their gifts!
​
At The Gathering People, I oversee all Go Day logistics, strategies and operations. Again, welcome! I’m so glad you’re here and can’t wait to get to know YOU!
