Our Leadership
Executive Director
“Enthused is an understatement.”
Claude Allen has been appointed as the founding CEO and President of Love in the Name of Christ (Love INC) Montgomery County. With over two decades of leadership in domestic and foreign policy, the private sector, and government contracts, Claude brings a wealth of experience to this role. However, it’s his deep commitment to gospel justice and community transformation that truly inspires us.
Claude and his wife, Jannesse, have long felt called by God to Montgomery County for a greater purpose: to serve their neighbors through love, compassion, and practical support. For the past 15 years, Claude has been deeply involved in Good Samaritan Advocates, a Christian legal aid ministry, offering legal services to those in need. He also co-founded a prison legal aid clinic providing vital legal support to inmates at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility, sharing the hope of the gospel alongside legal aid.
Claude and Jann’s personal Redemption Story is one of beauty from ashes, reflecting the transformative power of God’s grace. Together, they are committed to leading Love INC Montgomery County with a shared vision of faith-driven transformation—believing that God is at work in a mighty way in Montgomery County. We look forward to sharing more of their journey and the powerful ways God is using them to bring hope and healing to this community.
