Kurt Knochel Elder

My wife and I both come from small towns in Indiana. Our kids are westsiders but we remain Hoosiers at heart. Amy and I joined Westwood Cheviot Church of Christ in 1997, experiencing several senior and interim ministers there before David Vaughan. There was a lot of change and turmoil during those years as the leadership made decisions that were difficult in the short run but essential for the long-term health of WCCC as it transitioned to Whitewater Crossing Church of Christ. We remember tent services in a pasture as the ground was broken for our current facility and recall a sense of excitement (mixed with uncertainty) the day we left the familiarity of Glenmore Avenue for the unknown of Rt. 128. I am currently an elder, and Amy heads up the backpack program. We are fully engaged with Whitewater and excited about our future as a community of disciple-makers helping to build the kingdom. We remain because, no matter the changes in the people leading at WCCC, this church consistently worships Jesus and Him only.
