Pastor Bill Moormann
Bill, his wife Lisa have been attending Lynwood since 1998. They have three children, Lexie, Luke, and Rachel. Prior to Lynwood, Bill served in youth ministry for a number of years and received his undergraduate degree in Religion and some psychology at Columbia University (NYC), and Seminary MDiv at Azusa Pacific (Azusa, CA).
“My role as Pastor basically means I talk, read, and write. Of those, talking is one of my favorites, and there is little I enjoy more than getting a cup of coffee with someone and talk about big things. My passion is to help people take a step of faith. It matters not to me if it is someone who is not interested in God now taking an interest or someone who has been trying to follow Christ for years doing something that requires a new amount or type of faith. I sense God in those encounters and love to have a front row seat to what he is doing in the lives of people.”
Bill loves games, stories, and coming up with solutions for the World’s problems. Mainly he prefers to be a little knowledgeable about lots of things instead of an expert on one thing.
Family Pastor CarrieAnn Baker
CarrieAnn Baker began life in ministry while working with the traveling theater group Covenant Players along with her husband Caleb “Bake” Baker. They served together for the first 9 years of their marriage using drama as a means to encourage, challenge, and grow spiritually.
Studying psychology at Pacific Lutheran University, CarrieAnn has a strong background working with a local non-profit in counseling, marriage and relationship education, child development and parenting. Her work as Director of Family Ministries and Faith Formation over the past 9 years gives her a robust experience with Christian Education and ministry approaches.
Together CarrieAnn and Caleb are the proud parents to their adopted children Mayfrances and Amos Kayce, and the family’s surprise gift (after 20 years of marriage, pregnancy was possible!) Montgomery Grace.
Adventure, creativity, learning and connection are some of the things that drive CarrieAnn and help her to step into the role of Family Pastor, seeing this role’s purpose is “to help homes fulfill what it is called by Christ to do.”
