She began playing volleyball at 13 years of age. Coach Johnson has a sense that the Lord has really worked this opportunity out for Calvary and for Cristela. Coach Johnson describes Cristela’s path to Calvary this way, “God placed her on my heart a few weeks ago so I reached out to her in hopes of hearing about what the Lord was doing in her life after finishing her university studies. It became clear very quickly that the Lord might have a place for Cristela at Calvary. After speaking with Cristela and her parents over video conference, I realized that her family was on board and hopeful for a grad-school home for Cristela in Kansas City.” 

Cristela plans to complete our Organizational Leadership master’s program and hopes to fulfill a dream to be an athletic director in the not too distant future.
