Sandi Pennington

CLC Office Manager

My family and I have been members of Christ Lutheran Church since 1995. I left the banking business after 21 years of service in 2005 to become the secretary of Christ Lutheran Church. My primary role is to assist the pastors and congregation with their needs. I take great pride and joy in fulfilling these duties. I feel very blessed to be a member of the Christ Lutheran Church family.

Kellie Escovy

Director of Discipleship

joined this community as Director of Discipleship Ministries in September of 2025. My biggest passion is walking alongside people as they grow in faith together, ask big questions, and discover the unique ways God is at work in their lives. Whether it’s leading classes and faith formation groups, cheering on lay leaders, planning service-learning events, or building spaces where families can reflect and grow together—I’m here to dream and do ministry with you.
