Church Guardians

Church Guardians are those who are leading churches where the DNA of the Order is expressed and modelled; the churches themselves are not part of the Order as only individuals may become members, but the churches have taken on the values and principles of TOM. 

Currently the Church Guardians are:

Keld Dahlman – Aarhus Valgmenighed, Aarhus, Denmark

Keld is the senior pastor of Aarhus Valgmenighed in Aarhus, Denmark. He is married to Sara, and a father of four wonderful kids. His deepest passion is for a missional church and specifically enjoys raising up missional leaders.
