our mission

Zak Keelin, Youth Pastor

Zach's heart for ministry began as a child when his parents and grandparents were inner city ministry pastors in Charleston, SC. His call to international missions was stirred as a young man while attending TRIBE Youth as a teen here at Lafayette Vineyard. Since then, God has sent Zach to Romania, Africa, and Mexico to spread the healing love of Jesus. Since being married in 2020, Zach and his wife Saragrace have welcomed two children, Zahra and Atlas. Most recently, God sent Zach and Saragrace back home to Louisiana in 2021 where they have been serving in ministry since.

Zach is passionate in his study of the Word and God's Kingdom and loves to teach and share his knowledge with others. His heart is for the lost and sharing Jesus' healing love with them. Zach has been living by the phrase, "there is no junior Holy Spirit" since he himself was a teen, and is blessed to be able to teach the next generation of students.
