Born in Illinois, Kristin is a die-hard Chicago fan. She moved to Long Beach, California in middle school and upon graduation from Vanguard University, pounded the pavement in LA as an actress before God called her into ministry. She joined the staff of Santa Maria Foursquare Church and received her pastoral license in 1995. It was there she met and married the love of her life, Billy and they began their ministry partnership. While serving as Lead Pastors in Goleta, Kristin started a theatre program and founded a Theatre Summer Camp! Billy and Kristin were appointed as Lead Pastors of MCC in 2010 and they have 3 wonderful young adult children, Jeremiah, Emma & Bella, and a malti-poo, named Nilla. Kristin’s passion for developing young leaders is the reason she is also now a life coach. She enjoys reading, going to the movies, award shows, watching all Chicago sports, homemade chocolate chip cookies, and diet mountain dew.
