                   Keith distinctly recalls the time in 2007 when he fully
            embraced the cross to follow Jesus. God gave him a divine
            message that there would be a clear sign from heaven upon
            surrendering his most treasured possessions. This day would be a
            sign of God’s presence to fulfill the promise given to him. Keith
            presented the cross to the bishop as a gift on Marian Day during his
            public talk. He knew God was preparing him to gather the faithful to
            build up the Kingdom of God and restore the truth. This miraculous
            sign from God assures Keith that God is with him, calling his faithful
            shepherd, Bishop Vann, to accompany Keith for a New
            Evangelization.

                   “I sense that the moment has come to commit all of the
            Church’s energies to a new evangelization… No believer in Christ,
            no institution of the Church can avoid this supreme duty: to
            proclaim Christ to all peoples.” ~ Pope John Paul II

            of God.

                   On November 20, 2023, Keith, and his wife (Tracy) invited
            Christian faith leaders from Orange County to start a BFG ministry
            at Christ Cathedral. The announcement was made in the Christ
            Cathedral bulletin by the rector, Fr. Bao Thai, two weeks prior to
            their first BFG ministry meeting. The primary objective of the BFG
            ministry is to practice and strengthen the Christian faith by following
            the principles in the BFG Handbook. It was their hope that every
            church will adopt the BFG ministry to spread the Gospel beyond the
            church walls, reaching far and wide. This initiative will gather the
