Keilah has shared the stage with Ashley Cleveland, the Burns Sisters, and other nationally recognized music ministries. The universal appeal of their music has made it possible for them to witness to numerous youth groups and adult congregations. They have led worship at The Compass Ministry in Safety Harbor, Liquid Contemporary Service of Van Dyke Methodist Church, Java Jam at Heritage United Methodist Church of Clearwater, and First United Methodist Church of Lutz, and performed at McDonald's GospelFest in Jacksonville, Florida. In addition, they have taken their ministry beyond the church walls to secular venues including Stringbreak Music Festival, Riverhawk Music Festival, New Po! rt Richey Mainstreet Blast, and the Caladium Festival in Lake Placid, to name just a few. Keilah's calling is to advance God's Kingdom, as instructed in the Great Commission, through an inspired and creative music ministry, bringing the reassuring message of love, hope, and salvation to all people. God bless and keep all who minister in His name. |
