What is a Christian Ashram
Created for accountability, fellowship, and discipleship, the Christian Ashram was brought to North America in 1940. The Christian Ashram, whether in the one-day, weekend, or weeklong format, continues as an effective way to authentically connect with one another and with Jesus Christ in the 21st Century, as the kingdom of God in the miniature on earth.
How did the Christian Ashrams begin
The Christian Ashram was founded in 1930 by Dr. E. Stanley Jones, missionary to India. Dr. Jones, world famous missionary, evangelist, and author, established the Christian Ashram movement at Sat Tal, India, where he took the ancient ashram format and gave it Christian content, grounding the program in Jesus Christ. At the time of his death there were 75 Christian Ashrams established in the United States, Canada, and around the world.

Mark currently serves as a Canon missionary in the Charismatic Episcopal Church and has pastored Church of the Resurrection in Hemet, Ca. Mark has a deep passion for youth today and feels they are the future of the Church.
Our Evangelist - Brian Shimer

Brother Brian Shimer hasbeen a part of the Christian Ashram movement since 1981. Over the past three decades, he has served as a speaker at numerous Ashram events, where he has witnessed the powerful impact of Jesus in his life through this ministry. Brian takes great joy in guiding groups through discussions of God's Word and observing how the Holy Spirit brings profound and meaningful applications to participants. He is married to Karen and is a proud father of four daughters and grandfather to five grandchildren. Brian cherishes his family and values the opportunities to share his faith and experiences
