  • Ep.195 Home Is Where The Heart Is (Chris Kelker-Newlan of HOMETOWN MISSIONS)
    Sep 23 2025

    Monologue:

    • Charlie Kirk
    • Hometown Missions

    Guest:

    Chris Kelker-Newlan is the Operations Manager at Hometown Missions in Dripping Springs, where he has served since May 2022 as the organization’s first full-time employee. After nearly three decades in technology support with a global financial firm, and twenty years as a Dripping Springs resident, he now oversees the nonprofit’s “Home in a Month” program and broader operations. His work goes beyond building houses—he emphasizes preparing families for long-term success through financial counseling and making sure taxes, upkeep, and responsibilities won’t become a burden. Chris coordinates volunteers, church and business partners, and fundraising efforts to expand Hometown Missions’ impact, though like most nonprofits, resources and capacity can be limiting. Under his leadership, the organization continues to grow, focusing not only on replacing and repairing homes for neighbors in need but also on ensuring those homes remain sustainable for the families who receive them.
