Meet our Staff: Kristen Leichty

Kristen Leichty

Director of Community Care, Intl. Office, USA

Kristen joined Word Made Flesh as the Director of Community Care in August 2018. She desires to offer a space for reflection, rest and a listening ear to the WMF community as we live out our vocational callings around the world.

In 2017, Kristen graduated from Portland Seminary with an MA in Spiritual Formation and a certificate in Spiritual Direction. Before joining Word Made Flesh, she worked in experiential learning and study abroad programs for college students in both Lithuania and San Francisco. She loves exploring the sacred space where identity and spiritual formation as it collides with cross-cultural experiences.

Kristen currently lives in Oregon and can be found either hiking in the mountains or searching for the perfect lavender latte with friends.
