Leadership

Redeeming Hope Church is blessed to have a leadership team who are truly dedicated to Christ and accomplishing His will. Following are brief bio's of our leadership team.  

Tony Foley

Elder

Tony and his wife Miyako are so blessed to look back on their lives and see how the hand of YAHWEH God has been leading and guiding them even when their minds and hearts were not focused on Him. Tony was brought from a complacent and lukewarm Christian experience by Miyako's salvation through Christ from her life founded in Buddhism and service in her Father's Buddhist Temple. 

They have been involved with Redeeming Hope Church since the church's beginning in the fall of 2021. 

Tony has served on the board that established Redeeming Hope's Doctrinal Statements and The Church's By-Laws. 
Tony and Miyako see their calling in Acts 2:42: to encourage the Body of Christ through Small Group fellowship, the teaching of God's Word, and prayer. 


Tony and Miyako met in Kyoto, Japan, and married for 36 years. They have 2 children (Kyoko, 30, and Hikaru, 24).
They are blessed with 2 grandchildren, Eliyah and Yuzu.

Keith Guddeman

Elder

Keith and his wife Rusty have been involved with RHC since the inception of the church mid-2021. Keith was raised in a broken home but one where he experienced God's love through his mother and maternal grandparents who were believers and followers of Jesus. He accepted Jesus when he was 13 but didn't experience the transforming power of God's love in his heart until his early 40's.   

Keith and Rusty were married in 2018 and together they have 4 children, all who are married, and have blessed them with 6 grandchildren. Time with family is always cherished and something that doesn't happen enough.  

Keith serves as the Director of Finance and on the Elder Board, as Chairman for 2023 and 2024, as well as a part of the Security team.
