Leadership

Lead Pastor

Josue Villa serves as preaching, teaching, and lead pastor. He has a joy and passion to preach the Word of God and see changed lives through the power of the gospel. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from the University of Texas and a Master's degree in Theological Studies from Austin Graduate School of Theology.

Josue is married to Lyndsay who holds a Bachelor's degree in Education from the University of Texas. After teaching six years in public schools she decided to stay home to raise their children. She supports Josue wholeheartedly with prayer, encouragement, planning, and leading a children's ministry. They've been married eleven years and have three children, Joshua age 6, Tabitha age 4, and Susanna 1.

The vision they are working for is to simply see this church GROW...grow in genuine love for God and others, grow spiritually, and grow in number of lives being saved.

Worship Leader

Carl Harper has been involved with church music ministry since 1999, when he began to play multiple instruments and use his talent on the Manchaca Baptist Church worship team. After making a profession of faith in 1998, he wanted to use his gifts for God's glory and get plugged in to church as much as possible.

In the last decade, Carl has served inside and outside of the church walls through music ministry at Summer Youth Camps, Disciple Now, Crosstalk Ministry and Fellowship of Christian Athletes - both at Texas State University where he received his Bachelor's degree in Print Journalism (August 2008) - and as a guest worship leader at numerous churches.

When he is not putting his time and effort towards music ministry, he works as a freelance sports writer for major publications such as the Austin-American Statesman and the San Antonio Express-News, and also works in sports TV broadcasts for Earl Miller Productions and Fox Sports Net.

OPERATIONS & KidZone Director _______________

Sandra Louviere says, "as a child I grew up without God in my life, trusting in myself, and not knowing there was a God who loved me and who I could rely on. On February 26, 2006 after many years of struggling to do things on my own, I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior.

My greatest desire is to be a servant of the Lord and I truly believe He wants me to use my experiences to help children have a relationship with Him. I am enrolled in school for Children's Ministry, which I am very excited about. Our mission is to "Influence people far away from God and point their lives to Jesus" this includes children, and at KidZone we are fighting to win the hearts of children for God."

Sandra is currently a manager at HEB where she's been employed for 12 years. Sandra and her husband are recent empty nesters and are enjoying it but always look forward to spending time with their family. They have five children and three grandchildren. In her spare time she enjoys baking and gardening.

Student Ministry Director

Dusty Moore serves as the Student Ministry Director for Jr. High and High School students. At the age of 18 he was challenged by the church he was a part of to lead a group of students to a week-long summer camp. This experience shaped his heart for this type of ministry. So for the following year he committed himself to the “Master’s Commission” discipleship program in Plano, TX. There he served the ministries of Grace Outreach Center and says this about the experience:

“I grew in the Word, grew to love others, and fell in love with our Creator. I found a passion for ministering the love of God through teachings of His Son Jesus Christ.”

Dusty’s heart is for the students of this generation, and his prayer is that we can be a church that is real, trusting in the Holy Spirit, and led by the Word of God.
