About Me

My photo
Keith H. McIlwain
I am an ordained Global Methodist Elder (pastor/ presbyter/ priest/ rector) in western Pennsylvania with four children, a lovely granddaughter, and the world's most beautiful woman for a wife. I am blessed to serve through Trinity Church of Conneaut Lake, PA, a Global Methodist congregation. I have a passion to see the Church faithful in her calling to be the unified, disciple-making, Bread breaking, Cup sharing, Bible studying, prayerful, optimistic Body of Christ.
