After spending the early part of her ministry in the Oklahoma and North Texas Conferences, Leah came to the Central Texas Conference in 2008, where she pastored local churches in Hillsboro and Italy until her appointment as the Central District Superintendent in June 2016. A Harry Denman Evangelism Award winner, Leah’s passion for evangelism is both obvious and infectious and something she has brought to her myriad leadership roles outside of the local church; including being a mentor on both dCom and Board of Ministry levels, facilitating Healthy Church Initiative groups, leading numerous clergy and lay leadership groups, serving on the District Committee on Ordained Ministry, Central District Executive Committee and chairing the Superintendency Committee.
