WE HAVE A BIG ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE!!!

About 2 1/2 years ago, Alice and I began praying about what would be next for us with respect to ministry. I have served as a youth pastor at my home church for almost 6 years and as much as we love serving students, we began to feel a tug from God to move into Pastoral Ministry. As we began thinking about and writing down the "must haves" in an existing church...(like gospel centered, multi-ethnic, intergenerational, economically diverse, community involvement, etc.) we realized that it would be almost impossible to find the "perfect" existing church to pastor. Therefore, we decided to continue to pray for clarity.

A few weeks later, God began to put on my heart the idea of church planting. Church planting was not completely foreign to us because a close friend of ours planted a church a few years prior. As we continued to pray and fast, we began this journey of seeking answers from God to four very important questions:

1. What does this church plant need to be about?
2. Where does this church plant need to to take place?
3. Who needs to join us in this journey?
4. When should we pull the trigger?

Over the next year, Alice and I spent countless evenings praying, seeking wisdom and dreaming about this church plant and God began to give us understanding and clarity.

As a result, we proudly present to you THE WELL CHURCH OF KELLER.
