Jon and Tathiana Elam have served together with Campus Outreach for decades. Jon spent 21 years in Belo Horizonte, Brazil serving multiple roles including Campus Staff, Campus Director, Resource Director and Area Director - in each role serving with his God-given gifts and experience while always dedicated to the mission of "Building Laborers on the Campus for the Lost World". Tathiana worked alongside campus teams for years, supported the ministry as she raised their two children and also served as the CO hub-church Childrens' Director for 12 years.

As of 2023, the Elams have relocated to Birmingham, Alabama and will muster all their experience, gifting, and wisdom gathered from the field to support even more Campus Outreach regions and staff with Campus Outreach Serve. Jon is engaging in media and communications for internal and external publics of the ministry while also assisting Latin American regions with operations and resourcing. This is an exciting new chapter to life and ministry for the Elam family as their impact expands even further!
