Mr. and Mrs. Leamon G. Keel recently moved here to work with the Celeste Church of Christ.

Mr. Keele served as minister for the Central Church of Christ in Crystal River, Florida, for approximately eight years. He is retired from the US Air Force. His wife, Jean, taught in the Crystal River Elementary School; however, states that she plans to devote her time now to housekeeping duties and doing church work with her husband, which they both prefer.

The Keeles agree that Celeste is a beautiful community and appears to be filled with very friendly Texans. They are both natives of Texas and are happy to be back in this state.

"We are looking forward to a most enjoyable and profitable work for the Lord here," Mr. Keele said, "and everyone is cordially invited to attend each and every service of the Celeste congregation."
