Lloyd Wells

Senior Pastor

Lloyd is a graduate of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.  Prior to serving at Spring Creek he served as Youth Pastor and as Director of a local college ministry.  He has been at Spring Creek since March of 2012 serving as the associate pastor until recently stepped into the senior pastor position in April of 2019.   He also serves as an Elder of SCF.  Prior to full-time ministry he worked in the criminal justice system, renewable energy and higher education.  

Lloyd spent much of his teenage years in youth group and attending church but did not begin following Christ until he was in his late twenties.  The power of God through the preaching of the word and the Holy Spirit transformed his life and turned his heart towards Christ, leading him out of a criminal justice career into ministry.  

He is passionate about helping others understand the word of God through preaching and teaching.  

He and his wife, Chelsea, have a house full of children and two adult children who have started families of their own.

Bio:  My name is Joanna Cunningham-Gefre and I am so humbled and privileged to have been given the opportunity to serve Jesus full time at SCF.
I am originally from India, I then moved to Washington State after I got married and then the Lord called my husband and I to Big Spring, Texas. My Passion has always been to serve the Lord in any capacity He may see fit and I am so grateful that He has opened this door to serve you and your children through Spring Creek Fellowship. I am believing for greater things to come. I come from a pastoral home, both my parents are pastors and my brother and I have always served in the church. We know the value of Biblical foundations. I have walked away from Biblical principles and truth in my wandering years, "BUT GOD" showed me grace and brought me back into His fold. Now I see the value of biblical truth, principles, teaching, lifestyles and more, and I have truly been impacted by the Lord continously renewing and teaching me everyday about how much he truly loves and cares for us and just how willing he is to rescue us from things we didn't even know we needed to be rescued from.
Being at Spring Creek Fellowship and serving alongside my husband, who also serves as the youth pastor here, is such a blessing and an opportunity I do not take for granted. Spring Creek Fellowship has given me so much purpose to serve in this community as Director for Children's Ministry and KDO, for which I am very grateful. I pray that in the coming years we would see continued growth, and your kids become everything the Lord has for them, and everything you as parents dream and desire for them as well as us as the staff to see them reach their goals and achieve great things and conquer great mountains in life for the Lord.
