Meet Kristen
I’m no stranger to ministry…
Hi, I’m Kristen. For almost a decade, I’ve worked in the ministry trenches right alongside you.
I know the daily grind of fielding emails and processing sacrament paperwork, and I know the chaos of late-night bonanzas filled with messy games and sleep-deprived laughter. Over the years, I have worn the titles of Director and Coordinator for Middle School, High School, and Young Adult Ministries, as well as Parish Communications.
Here’s a little more about my experience.
Every moment was a gift. I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside teenagers trying to find where they fit, and young adults braving the “adulting” world. I’ve collaborated with volunteers who generously said yes to the next generation, prayed with parents, and locked arms with fellow ministers.
As the communication command center for my parishes, I brought together news, events, and ministries through website management, streamlined workflows, and social media. I was the one always carrying a notebook, ready to capture insights for prayer, staff adjustments, or new content. (And yes, I was usually the designated tech support during big events, too!)
Why Of Becoming coaching?
Working on the inside gave me a front-row seat to the unique challenges of parish life. Over time, a few heavy realities became clear:
- A Lack of Equipping: Most ministers (especially in youth and young adult ministry) step into their roles without formal training or coaching.
- Office Friction: Communication breakdowns are incredibly common in parish offices, leading to unnecessary burnout.
- The Forgotten Minister: In our zeal to evangelize, it is easy to forget the human value of the person sitting behind the desk. Yes, you.
When I stepped away from the front lines, the Lord shifted my vision. I realized I wanted to turn my attention from being the parish minister to supporting the ministers. He instilled a burning desire in me to bring the profound truths of the Theology of the Body into the everyday church workplace, creating a true culture of life and care for those working professionally for the Kingdom.
Of Becoming coaching was born out of that desire. I’m here to serve you.
