Meet Kylie Hettinger, our new Director of Children’s and Family Ministries
Hello! My name is Kylie Hettinger and I am excited to work at Westminster! I graduated from Asbury University in 2017 and received a Bachelors in Christian Ministries. I am also currently working on a Master of Arts in Leadership from Asbury Theological Seminary and will graduate May 2022. I grew up in the church and was called into vocational ministry while in college.
A little bit about me - my husband Justin and I were just married in March! I have a dog named Finn who is almost 4. I am originally from Tennessee but made the move up to Ohio this past fall. I look forward to meeting everyone and growing together in faith! I have already begun to pray for you and believe God has great things in store for us at Westminster!
