Kristy Whiteman
Director of Prayer
Kristy began attending Legacy Church in May 2022 after the Lord led her to move from California to New Braunfels in late 2021 through a dream and vision. She testifies that God specifically placed her at Legacy, and her willingness to surrender to His leading is evident from the moment you meet her. With a diverse ministry and professional background, Kristy is a natural fit for her role as Prayer Director, which she stepped into in April 2023.
As Prayer Director, and as someone who has embraced prayer as a lifestyle, Kristy believes, "We are called in this ministry to be prayer warriors, led by the Holy Spirit and empowered to pray the will of God and His Kingdom into our city, region, nation, and the world. We are united in this one purpose: to serve Him through worship, prayer, and fasting until His Kingdom is made manifest on the earth."
Kristy's ministry experience includes serving as a Children's Director from 2005–2008, earning a Certificate of Completion in Ministry and Leadership from Vision International University, and completing her first year at Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry (BSSM) in May 2023. One of her greatest passions is seeing people step into their God-given identity and purpose in His Kingdom, which is why Kingdom education has remained such an important part of her life. She is an Activate Certified Trainer (ACT) with Prophetic Company and serves full-time with Harvest Ministries International working for The Praying Prophet Jennifer Eivaz.
In addition to ministry, Kristy has an extensive business and administrative background. She served as Assistant Registrar for Vision International University from 2006–2010, worked in church administration during that time, and spent 28 years as Controller for an automotive corporation.
Originally born in Hayward, California, and raised primarily in Oceanside, Kristy loves spending time with family and is honored to serve on the Legacy leadership team alongside her mother, Sue. She has a son, Jordan, a daughter, Madelyne, and a daughter-in-love, Shelby, whom she shared with her husband of 26 years, Jeff, before his passing in February 2021. In her free time, Kristy enjoys reading, spending time with her wonderful friends, discovering great food, worshiping with flags, and simply being in the presence of the Lord.
