Kory Wilcoxson

Senior Minister

kory@crestwoodchristian.org

I’m Kory Wilcoxson, and I have the privilege of serving as Senior Pastor here at Crestwood. I’ve been here since November of 2009, having served in Chicago and Indianapolis before coming here. I have degrees in communication and journalism to go along with my religious studies, and I’m currently pursuing my Doctor of Ministry degree. I am married to Amy Treneff and I have two daughters, Sydney and Molly, who keep me humble and bring me much joy. We also are the proud parents of two dogs and six chickens! I’m a life-long Reds, Bengals, and Wildcat fan, so Lexington is Heaven for me. I’m so blessed to serve this amazing congregation and can’t wait to see what God has in store for us!

 

Trish Standifur

Associate Minister

trish@crestwoodchristian.org

I describe myself as a “child of God doing the best I can with what I have today!”

I grew up in Beckley, WV and am still proud to be a “mountaineer!”  I moved to Kentucky to attend Lexington Theological Seminary in the late 80’s and have been a Cats fan ever since.  In my 27+ years of ministry, I  have served churches in Lexington and Burlington, Kentucky.

I love ministry and its sacred path.  I am grateful for the call.   I work with the Care Ministries, Outreach Teams and Senior Adults.  It is a gift to try to offer comfort to ones who face challenges. It is a blessing to work to provide ways to care for those in need and to foster opportunities for individuals to find ways to make the world a better place.

When not found doing any of these things, I like to play cards with friends and ball with my black lab! I enjoy being in nature…as long as the nature doesn’t slither!

 

Steph Wallace

Student Associate Minister

steph@crestwoodchristian.org

Steph’s primary area of focus is our middle and senior high youth groups.  Steph and her family- husband Scott, son Carter, and daughter Clara- have been members of Crestwood for several years.

Steph is enrolled in Lexington Theological Seminary to pursue her Master of Divinity degree.  She has been an educator since 1995, teaching middle and high school.  She has also previously worked with youth groups on a volunteer basis in Albuquerque, NM, and here at Crestwood.  She is an animal lover and shares her home with 10 pets!

 

Missy Wallace

Children’s Minister

missy@crestwoodchristian.org

Greetings friends! My name is Missy Wallace, and it is a pleasure to serve as the Children’s Minister at Crestwood Christian Church.

I grew up in a small church in Eastern Kentucky where every Sunday morning, Sunday night and Wednesday night I learned about this great man named Jesus and how He changed the world forever. Now, I’ve found my calling connecting children with the greatest superpower ever known, the unconditional love of God. I’ve been in Children’s Ministry for over 15 years and hold a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with advanced training through the International Network of Children’s Ministry.

Our immediate family includes my husband Kevin, son Jacob and adult children Madison, Lacy and Rachel. We love travel planning, all things Disney and spending time with our pups, Abby, Curly and Chewy.
