Elisabeth Lectka
I began working at Good Shepherd as the Middle School Ministry Leader and currently lead our Student Ministries. I studied Organizational Communication and Leadership at Butler University. In 2024, I completed my Master of Divinity at Northern Seminary.
I grew up at Good Shepherd and was heavily involved in the high school ministry as a student. While I thought my future might be in pharmacy, during college God revealed to me that he had other plans! After various experiences in youth and young adult ministry in college and in Berlin, Germany, I joined the Good Shepherd staff in 2017.
My husband and I were married in January of 2021 (pandemic wedding!). We live in Aurora, IL with our daughter, Alice Kay, and Golden Retriever, Charlie. In my free time, you'll find me baking sourdough, running, reading, and traveling!
I have a deep love for this community and am passionate about getting people connected at Good Shepherd. My door is always open, especially if you're bringing a chai latte!
