Lift Up Your Heart!
Founders
Forming and growing Sursum Corda Community has been a collaborative effort by many individuals and couples since our founding in 2016. The Kellers and the Dills got the ball rolling, but we are deeply indebted to Monsignor Voorhies for his vision and guidance in encouraging us to start this community. Additionally, Ed and Cindy Loescher, whose love for Jesus and community is extraordinary, continue to share their wisdom, teaching, and joyful service.
​
We invite you to bring your gifts and talents
to help us grow and build the
Sursum Corda Community.
The Kellers have been married for 25 years and have four children.
