John, I have set aside input-jms for the moment because logstash-input-stomp was able to process an ActiveMQ generated jms message.

My logstash config file looks like this:

input {  
stomp {  
host =\> "localhost"  
destination =\> "foo.bar"  
}  
}

output {  
elasticsearch {  
protocol =\> "http"  
}  
}

Where destination is my localhost located ActiveMQ queue name. I wish I could take credit, but I found the stomp alternative here.

Hope this helps a little.
