Dear Friends and Supporters,

I hope this message finds you well and in good spirits as we gather with loved ones during the holiday season. My heart is filled with deep gratitude for your unwavering support, friendship, and encouragement throughout the years. You have inspired me to serve our community with integrity and dedication, and I am truly thankful.

After thoughtful conversations with my family, our current Recorder of Deeds, Mrs. Charlotte Pickering, and many moments of prayer, I am excited to share that I will be seeking election as Jasper County Recorder of Deeds in 2026. This decision was not made lightly, but with a genuine desire to serve and give back to the place we all call home.

Many of you know me from my time with the Missouri Department of Agriculture, where I learned firsthand the importance of honest service and stewardship. Those experiences have shaped my commitment to our county, and I am eager to bring that perspective to this new role. Not only serving in public service, but I have also served over 30 years in the private sector in positions such as management in the retail sector and service in the funeral industry, ministering to families so that they can give the upmost dignity to their loved ones and honor their lives.

As we celebrate this special time of year, I wish you and your families peace, joy, and blessings. Please know that more details about my campaign will be shared with you in February, and I look forward to connecting with each of you then.

In the meantime, if you have any questions or would like to share your thoughts with me, you may contact at (417) 439-9092 or my email address is hensley4jcrecorder@gmail.com.

May God bless you and your family, bless Jasper County, bless Missouri, and bless the United States of America.

With heartfelt appreciation,

Brent L Hensley
