Eric Keillor
My role is the Vice President of Field Ministry and I am responsible to ensure that we are healthy in our current geographies - healthy staff and volunteers and healthy ministry as well as growing in to new spaces - new provinces/territories and new people groups of teenagers. Essentially, my role is to ensure we create new ministries across Canada and fill them with godly, well trained staff. Structurally, I supervise Young Life, WyldLife, Capernaum and Skatelife across the country and my team is the Regional Directors and Ministry Directors who pull that off. I have an admin team of two people and I also supervise the Learning and Leadership Director who I hired to ensure we have a full and healthy leadership pipeline across the mission. As well, I oversee our current strategic plan which is to know 10,000 teenagers by name.
