Linda Westmorland wears many different hats as she serves Jesus Christ. Linda rededicated her life to the Lord in her late twenties, promising to serve Him wherever He wanted her. Linda feels that she has been called to “serve and assist” as Pastor Noel's personal assistant for New Hope and the Northern Illinois District.

Linda and Larry's love for kids is apparent and in 1999 they became the Children's Ministries coordinators. They strive to partner with parents to bring Biblical principals to the children of New Hope. Linda is always looking for creative and innovative ways to disciple children and to lead children to Jesus. Change is the key word to the Promise Land Team.

Linda and Larry have been married 35 years and have one son and 3 beautiful grandsons. Linda loves to read and you can find her quite often on her patio with a good book. She and Larry love to travel and are especially fond of “warm” winter vacations. One of Linda's favorite scriptures is, " Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." - Proverbs 3:5-6
