Kevin Elwell

Pastor for Preaching and Vision

Kevin regularly preaches and teaches the Word at Bayview Church and also leads in setting the vision for the church’s ministry.

Kevin and his family of seven have traveled across the Pacific from California to serve the Lord at Bayview Church. They spent 10 years in Southern California before being called to Guam. Kevin served as the head men’s and women’s soccer coach at San Diego Christian College while finishing up his Master’s of Divinity. God then moved them to West Los Angeles where Kevin served at First Baptist Church of West Los Angeles. During this time Pastor Kevin helped move the church through several transitions the most significant being a church merger. He finished his time in L.A. serving as one of the founding pastors of Cornerstone Church of West Los Angeles. He also completed a Doctor of Ministry degree focusing on growing churches in a postmodern culture from Talbot University.

Guam is familiar territory to the Elwells’. Kevin’s wife Melissa grew up in Guam during high school and graduated from Trinity Christian School in Yigo, Guam. Melissa met Kevin in college when she left Guam on an athletic scholarship. They were married in 1996 and returned to Guam where Kevin served as the Athletic Director at Trinity Christian School and then G.I.C.A.

The Elwells' return to Guam this time with five children: Josiah, Ethan, Caleb, Micah, and their youngest Abigail. They are passionate about serving families and reaching the next generation. The Elwell family also loves adventure and plans on exploring Guam’s beautiful island. They love outdoors and playing sports. They are a soccer family and Pastor Kevin has spent a lot of time coaching the youth teams that his sons have played on. He currently has the privilege of serving as the technical director of the Strykers Football Club.

Kevin is looking forward to serving Bayview and Guam for many years and hopes that God will give him the tenure needed to bring about the fruit of long-term investing.

Mel was born and raised on the island of Guam. He trusted in Christ at the age of five when he realized that he is not saved by works but by faith alone… through grace alone… in Christ alone.

He attended Harvest Christian Academy and Harvest Baptist Church for his elementary and high school years and thanks God for the mentors who helped him develop a heart for God.

God led him to Northland International University where he met his wife Rachel and pursued a B.A. and an M.A. in Biblical Studies (2005–2011). It was there he learned the importance of servant-leadership.

In his growing love for the church, biblical theology, and the biblical languages God opened the door for him to pursue a Master of Divinities from Bethlehem College & Seminary (2013–2017). During this time, he also had the privilege of serving as a pastoral intern at Eden Baptist Church where he learned many practical life lessons on what it means to feed, lead, tend, and defend the flock of God.

In 2017, Mel and Rachel joined the Bayview family. He enjoys learning, sports, the arts, and (most recently) CrossFit.
