Hi! I’m Eliana, but eventually, my name always gets shortened to El or just simply E. I’m grateful to be serving at Christ Lutheran as Youth and Family Ministry Director. I am originally from the Chicago area but have called Dallas home since 2008. Minus the five years, I lived in the Middle East. I am a joyful, hope-filled person and love giving that hope and joy to others. I love patios, good food, and meaningful conversations. I hope to build relationships with families and individuals built on trust, confidence, understanding, and, most importantly, Jesus.
