Kristy Whiteman

Director of Prayer

Kristy began attending Legacy in May 2022 after a vision God gave her in a dream led to a move from California to New Braunfels in late 2021. She testifies to God specifically placing her at Legacy, and her willingness to surrender to His will is evident from the moment you meet her. Kristy has a multi-faceted ministry background which makes her a great fit as our director of prayer, a role she took on in April 2023.

As prayer director and someone who has adopted prayer as a lifestyle, Kristy believes “we are called in this ministry to be prayer warriors, led by the Holy Spirit and His power to pray the will of God and His Kingdom in our city, region, nation, and the world! We are all united in this one thing; that we would serve Him through worship, prayer, and fasting until his Kingdom is made manifest on the earth.”

Kristy’s ministry experience includes serving as children’s director (2005-2008), receiving a certificate of completion for ministry and leadership from Vision International University bible college, and receiving her first-year graduate certificate from Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry (BSSM) in May 2023. With one of her main passions being to see people come into their full identity in the Kingdom, it makes perfect sense why Kingdom education is so prevalent in Kristy’s life. She is currently enrolled in year one of Dano McCollum’s Activated Certified Trainer (ACT) in the prophetic program and year two of BSSM. And she is in the process of beginning year three mentorship training with Excellence in the Supernatural in July 2023 as an intern for The Praying Prophet, Jennifer Eivaz.

Kristy also spent many years focusing on business endeavors: she served as assistant registrar for Vision International from 2006-2010, worked in administration at a local church during that time, and worked as a controller for an automotive corporation for almost 25 years. She is currently combining her love for the Lord with her passion for writing in the form of authoring her first book! 

Originally born in Hayward, CA and living most of her life in Oceanside, Kristy loves being with family, as evidenced by her serving on the Legacy leadership team with her mother, Sue. She has a son, daughter, and daughter-in-love in their 20s – Jordan, Madelyne, and Shelby – whom she shared with her husband, Jeff, of 26 years before he passed away in February 2021. She loves reading, spending time with her amazing friends, and is a total foodie! And Kristy also loves to worship with her flags and spend time with the Lord.
