Carissa Bickling

Carissa is the Ministry Director for Lake Travis. She coordinates with local ministry and church partners to identify members of our community who are struggling with isolation and need support with living conditions.

Carissa graduated from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor (go cru!) with a bachelor’s degree in social work and soon after completed her master’s through Texas State University. She started her career with the Local Mental Health Authority in Williamson County, working with children and families navigating tough times. Through that work the Lord has grown her passion to serve the community in which she lives.

Carissa is a newlywed! She was married in November of 2022 to her husband, Kevin. When not working you can find her traveling, playing board games, spending time outside, or trying out a local coffee shop.
