Rev. Keith Simmons is widely known as a man with a heart for people. Adding to this his very affable nature, it was easy for him to become a minister after studies at the Open Bible Institute of Theology, from which he graduated in 1980. A former teacher at the Open Bible High School, Pastor Keith currently heads the Creative Evangelism (Basketball), Mentoring and Prison Ministries, along with his duties as an Assistant Pastor at this church. He served as pastor at Couva, did pioneer work in Grenada, and has ministered in Curacao and Aruba.
Known for his preaching emphasis on living holy and righteous lives that exemplify Christ, Pastor Keith would like to see a return to more reverence for the sanctity of the house of God, and also Christians having a deeper altar experience, and higher moral and spiritual standards in respect to lifestyles.
Married to Camelite Ramsey-Simmons, a teacher at the Open Bible Kindergarten, and leader in the Children's Ministry and Children's Choir, they are the parents of two girls, Keziah Simmons-Grant, and Kelliah Simmons, both in ministry at the First Church.
