What a blessing to be together

We're excited to be celebrating Redwood Christian Ashram's 65th anniversary! We've seen amazing blessings each time we come together. Come and see what God has in store!

Bishop Bob Hayes - Evangelist

Rev. Dr. Robert (Bob) E. Hayes, Jr. was born in Houston, Texas and is the third generation of Methodist ministers in his family with his own 40+ years in the ministry. Brother Bob is married to Deliliah "Dee” Hayes and is the proud father of three grown children. After 12 years overseeing 615 churches as Bishop of the Oklahoma Area, Bob Hayes has joined the staff of The Woodlands Methodist Church . Bob was recently elected to serve the United Christian Ashram ministry as a member of The Four, which seeks to hold UCAI true to its spiritual foundation. Bob is known as one of the best communicators in the faith and we are excited to have him this summer at the Redwood Christian Ashram.

Rev. Dr. Craig Brown - Bible Teacher

Craig has been married to his wife Bettina for over 30 years. They share two adult children with one living in San Diego and the other in Seattle. His ministry as Lead Pastor started at First Free Methodist Church in Seattle, WA in 2022 after having served in United Methodist Churches in California for over thirty years. He came to faith as a 13 year-old when five schoolmates in public school shared the gospel message with him. Pastor Craig enjoys travel, visiting over 10 nations as part of pilgrimages or personal travel. He plays golf as often as he can! His passion for ministry focuses on his call to “restore the beauty of the church” by serving churches who seek a new season of growth and vitality. He is a graduate of Biola University, Fuller Theological Seminary, and holds a doctorate from Boston University School of Theology.
