Senior Pastor - RevEREND Elliott Powell

My beautiful wife and I delight in our three children, our life together in West Texas and our service to Westminster.  I graduated from Coronado High School in 1993, Westmont College in 1997 (B.A. Communication Studies), and Fuller Seminary in 2002 (MDiv).  I was ordained as a pastor in 2007.

Before coming to Westminster, I served churches in Los Angeles, CA; Bethlehem, PA; and Ashburn, VA and have filled a variety of other ministry roles in the United States and internationally.   

Westminster has a special place in my heart.  When I was a member of its student ministry, the leadership of Westminster led me into a continuing and transformative relationship with Jesus Christ.  I count it among the great joys of my life to serve the church that helped to grow my faith. 

Executive Director - Christie Moreno

As a native of Lubbock, I've had the opportunity to work in various leadership roles across several non-profit and state organizations throughout Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. I consider it a blessing to join the Westminster family, and I look forward to building and growing the church vision with you.

Community and service have played a significant role in my life and led to meeting my husband, Javier, through a service fraternity at Texas Tech University. Since our recent marriage, we have blended two adult sons and a daughter into a beautiful family.

 In our spare time, Javier and I love all things outdoors, listening to local live music, and spending time with friends and family.

Director of kids Ministry - Cassandra mcdonald

My family and I are blessed to call West Texas our home and I am honored to serve our young families with a passion, reaching out to WPC and our community with the Gospel. I was born and raised in Lubbock. I attended Roosevelt Elementary from elementary until graduation. Following high school, I graduated with my bachelor’s degree in education. My husband, Cecil, and I were married in September 2000. Together, we have five children. Matthew (31), Madeline (27), Noah (21), Joseph (21). and Claire (17). We have been foster parents on and off since 2005. We currently have two children in our home. Alyssa (7) and Aric (5) have been with us for about eighteen months. We also have six grandchildren who we absolutely adore.

As a child, I knew I had a calling to work with children. I often tell people that I have loved children since I was one. I fondly remember a handful of adults who loved and ministered to me when I was young. While still in elementary school, I remember vowing to my adult self that I would be to children what those important, Godly people were to me. I have known Jesus as my savior from a young age and have a passion to make that the story for as many children as possible.

I am an open, creative, and loving person. My ministry office is open and available for all at any time; for counseling, to talk, to dream, and to work together for God’s Kingdom. It is all for His glory. God has called me to the ministry, and my heart is to provide a place that is biblically grounded, safe, and welcoming to all who enter.

Traditional Music Director - Boyce Wyrick

Born in St. Louis, we moved to Texas and settled in Amarillo where I was baptized into the family of God at the age of 10.  Following graduation in 1966, Texas Tech and Lubbock became home. After a military obligation, Lubbock and Coronado high schools provided a 35-year career in music education followed by 9 years at Wayland Baptist University.  In addition to teaching, over the years I have performed with symphonies in Amarillo, Roswell, Midland, Seoul & Yongsan, Lawton, San Angelo, San Antonio, Big Spring, Hobbs, and Plainview. In the Spring of 2023, I retired from the Lubbock Symphony Orchestra after 50 years. For many seasons, the Plainview Symphony offered me the podium allowing me grow both musically and personally.

Kathy and I blended our families in 1987.  Our four children have added eight grandchildren and one great-grandson to the family…please ask to see pictures and/or hear stories!

For decades, service in church music has increasingly become a passion. Having held directorships at First Christian, Westmont Christian, and Westminster Presbyterian has offered the opportunity to grow not only musically but also in the Lord. It is a great pleasure to serve at WPC where I continue to learn each & every day. Working with fellow Christian musicians is the best way that I can serve the Lord. Westminster provides the fellowship and service opportunities vital to the church and to my soul.

My husband Dave and I just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary! We have six adult children, 4 precious grandchildren and 4 adorable doggies. I am a native of this area and grew up in Hale Center. I attended and graduated from Hale Center High School and was a member of the First Baptist Church for many years. My husband, Dave, was born and raised in beautiful Michigan. 

Dave and I have worked in many disciplines of Health Care throughout our adult lives as we share a passion for serving others. 

I am thrilled to be a part of Westminster in this new chapter in my life! I feel the Lord has carefully guided my steps along the way and has lead me here. My passion is not only ministering to people, but ministering to people where they are in life. I have done that for years in different areas of healthcare and so look forward to continue this ministry in other areas that God has opened for me! I look forward to meeting each of you and building new friendships here at Westminster!
