Meet the Staff

Michelle and her husband Brian joined Westlife in the Fall of 2022. Together they enjoy hiking and cycling in their free time as well as hanging out with their three young adult children.
Michelle longs for everyone to know the love of Father God, the friendship of Jesus, and the comfort and power of the Holy Spirit in their lives. Her favourite part of pastoral ministry is teaching and equipping people to live out the Good News of the Gospel in their sphere of influence. Michelle enjoys writing and communicating in a way that is relatable and relevant.
