Pastor Keith grew up in Northern California, but after graduating high school he spent time in Southern and Central California. By the grace of God Keith landed in Bend, Oregon in July, 2005 and has been happy ever since.
Keith has experience working with youth, families, young adults, and checking his facebook. He married the most amazing woman (Kara) on the planet and together have produced three awesome children in the very short time they have enjoyed marriage (Makenna - 6, Colton - 5, Eliana - 2). Some say they are brave, some say stupid.
JOURNEY CHURCH is a lot like having a kid. JOURNEY is a new church that was birthed on February 21, 2010. JOURNEY is pretty weird because we dream of being a church for those that don’t like church. Since Keith and Kara did not grow up in the church, they have an affinity for those that do not go to church - God still loves them!
Keith believes God planted the vision of thousands of lives changed in Bend and all over the world because of JOURNEY CHURCH. The mission is one of the most simple, yet profound statements: JOURNEY exists to transform the world, starting in Bend, through faith, hope, and love.
If any of this sounds interesting, we invite you to JOURNEY with us. Check us out on Sundays, 10:00am, at 70 NW Newport Ave (underneath Boondocks). We promise to serve great coffee, try not to take life too seriously, and hopefully experience life change when we explore God together! You might just like what you find.
With joy on the journey,
Pastor Keith
