Welcome Leslie Barrera, Communications and Marketing Director!

Christ Church is thrilled to welcome Leslie Barrera, CFRE, to the Cathedral staff!

On August 19, Leslie joined us in ministry as the new Communications & Marketing Director. As she reflects on her arrival, “I can’t wait to meet each of you and learn how I can help the Cathedral, to best serve you and our community.”

Leslie comes to CCC after 19 years with the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, serving in roles such as Associate Director of Development & Stewardship and Director of Media. She worked in outreach ministry to over 150 churches, 61 ministries, and ran the PR and marketing campaign for the largest private school system in Texas. She brings a lot of gifts with her, including being bilingual in English and Spanish.

“Leslie’s dedication to her faith, and the talents that she has built over the years, will add great strength to the Cathedral staff,” says Karen Kraycirik, COO. “I am excited to see how the Communications department evolves with her creativity and leadership.”

In her free time, she is heavily involved in community theatre, having been a playwright and director for over 15 years in the Houston theatre scene and national festival stages, as well as advocating for inclusive and representative theatre. Welcome, Leslie!
