It was there that he founded and ran the Light program to train lay people to do spiritual direction. In Louisville, Kentucky, USA, from 1990 to 2001, he was part of the team of the Archdiocesan Office of Ministry and Spirituality. In 2002 he returned to Massachusetts as director at Eastern Point Retreat House in Gloucester. Keegan has served on the Coordinating Council of Spiritual Directors International and was part of the editorial board that founded the Presence: An International Journal of Spiritual Direction.
