Pastor Esmeralda, alongside her husband Jim Honeybone
Called to Serve, Love, and Help Build the Kingdom of God.
A church birthed from grief and guided by faith (Proverbs 16:9), One Heartbeat 4 Jesus Church is a church that plans to reach people both online and in person. With a heart for discipleship, community, and kingdom expansion. Esmeralda and Jim are committed to teaching, equipping, and loving others while sharing the gospel.
Esmeralda Honeybone, the Lead Pastor, brings over 15 years of experience in preaching, teaching, and reflecting God's faithfulness through her journey of healing and transformation. Jim’s path has shaped him tremendously by overcoming hardship and poverty, highlighting the power of God's grace.
Together for 28 years, Esmeralda & Jim have overcome many challenges of life and marriage, but they’ve learned that love covers a multitude of sins (1 Peter 4:8). Unfortunately, they experienced the heartbreaking loss of their daughter in 2024, feeling God's strength leading them to create this online community. Their journey has been deeply shaped by faith, prayer, and perseverance. They are eager to witness how God moves through this ministry and where God leads them!
“One Heartbeat 4 Jesus Church” accommodates a loving and authentic space. Walking together by faith and not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). Constantly striving to remain aligned with God, and having a fully devoted heart for Jesus.
Matthew 28:19 “Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the Father and the Son and the holy spirit”.
