Prior to that, Drew led K-12 choral music/musical programs at Evansville North High School and Loogootee Community School Corporation and was Music Minister at Keck Ave Baptist Church in Evansville, IN. Drew's ministry efforts are aimed at glorifying the only God in worship by singing the truths of scripture for any and all to hear as a means of advancing the gospel and unifying believers toward holy living. He is passionate about providing a musical depiction of the life of the church in it's many activities and providing a complete doctrinal song repertoire from various genres, so that members of RiverWind will be encouraged to memorize truths of scripture, participate robustly in corporate worship, and prepare for an eternal future of praise and worship in the very presence of Almighty Father God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.

Bart has served in local ministries in the Evansville area since 2015. He and his wife Anna are raising 5 kids. Bart’s life has been radically transformed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. His personal mission is to proclaim the goodness of God, through His word, here at Riverwind Church, and local schools and jails through his work with The Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

Katherine has been attending Riverwind church since 2019. In 2020, she and her husband Matthew were married at Riverwind and embarked on the adventure of their first years of marriage in Colorado.  In 2024, Katherine, her husband and their two daughters moved back to Indiana and are so pleased to be involved in Riverwind.  Katherine has a little over 10 years of children and youth ministry experience and wants to light an unquenchable fire for Jesus in the Riverwind Kids!
