Clint and his wife, Alyssa, both graduates of Troy University, had always had a special place in their heart for Troy and moved back in 2019.

Working with a group of Troy citizens that also felt the Lord stirring their hearts for unity and to love the under-served in the Troy, they partnered with Common Ground Montgomery to start the newest Common Ground expansion in 2019.
