Come to the Mountaineer Christian Ashram held the first week in August in Ripley, West Virginia. You’ll love the amazing fellowship with God and the people who come together. We seek to help all people deepen their experience of the dynamic reality of God in daily living. We proclaim “Jesus is Lord!”

Bible Teacher
Our dear brother Keith returns once again to the Mountaineer Christian Ashram. He is a graduate of Fort Wayne
Bible College in Fort Wayne, Indiana with a Bachelor of Arts in Missions.
He has served on staff at churches in Columbus, Ohio and Cedarville, Indiana as well as interim pastor at several congregations. After serving as both
Associate Pastor and Lead Pastor of First Alliance Church in Toledo, Ohio, Keith was named Pastor Emeritus in 2016.
Keith has taught and preached at numerous Ashrams, including ours, as he is truly a favorite. Married since
1967, Keith and Dee have two grown sons.
His greatest joy is to awaken people to God’s truth through the preaching and teaching of God’s Word.
Local Director
I began attending Ashrams in Ohio, Kentucky, North Carolina and Kansas as a teenager with my family. As Director, I guide the daily events during the Ashram as well as the Board of Twelve leadership team during the rest of the year.
I've come to believe that no matter what is happening in a person's life, Jesus has a way of taking us from our worst to our best.
