Why We Exist: Drs. Paul & Kendra Elam

We met as teenagers and became high school sweethearts, then life became sweeter when we gave our lives to Jesus Christ. After getting married in 1997, God placed a passion for marriage on our hearts. By 2001, we were hosting fellowship gatherings in our home, which grew into a ministry as couples shared how their marriages were being strengthened. In 2005, we brought this ministry to our local church and named it Covenant Keepers, dedicated to encouraging and empowering couples to honor God in their relationships. As the ministry continued to grow, it naturally expanded into event planning, and in 2019 we officially established Covenant Keepers as an LLC. Today, we are blessed to share this journey with five children and a beloved son-in-law, helping others experience the joy of Christ-centered marriages.

We’re Here to Pray With You

At Covenant Keepers, we believe in the power of prayer to bring comfort, clarity, and strength. Whether you’re facing a challenge, celebrating a blessing, or seeking guidance, we would be honored to lift your request before God. Your prayer request will be received by our ministry team and handled with care. You may choose to share as much or as little detail as you feel comfortable.
