Ivan Ledet is the senior pastor of Jubilee Nation Christian Ministies in Jeanerette and Lafayette Louisiana. He grew up in New Jersey and finished his last year of high school in Jeanerette, La. It was there that he joined the U.S. Army and served in various places, such as Ft. Sill Oklahoma, Babenhausen Germany, Ft. Stewart Georgia, and the Lousiana National Guard. After serving eight years he was honorably discharged and went to college in Lafayette, La. It was during these times that he heard the call of God, dedicated his life to the Lord, and went into the ministry.

Pastor Ledet later became the pastor of JNCM along with his wife, filling the role of his father and mother (Ivory & Izetta Ledet), the founders and previous pastors.

It was in 2008 that God put it on Pastor Ivan's heart to open a second location in his home town of Lafayette. He has been married to his wife Sheila, who he met while stationed in Germany, since 1992 and they are the honored parents of 3 children.

The greatest desire Pastor Ivan has is to see every believer in the body of Christ increase in maturity through and according to the Word of God.
