 are once again, excited to have Angela Kessel, leading worship with the “In Faith” band.  We are blessed that each member is committed to serve the Lord with their time and talents, and we are honored to have them share their gifts with us at the Northwest Christian Singles Retreat.

Being raised in a motorcycle ministry geared toward outlaws within her family’s home church, Angela has been singing for Jesus since the age of seven.  From those informative years, she vividly recalls getting on the back of her dad’s Harley, and together with the rest of the pack, riding down to the river for baptism.  Her mom was leading worship with her guitar, and her grandpa, Preacher Mike Arnold, baptized her in the Columbia River.  She was excited to give her life to Jesus!

Angela spent 7 years singing in a Christian Rock band known as, “The Stand”, and she also had a significant role as co-leader of a classic rock band, “Haze”, that actively preformed around the Spokane and North Idaho area.  Angela was drawn back to her preferred style of music which is Gospel Blues/Rock.  As well as being a talented lead vocalist, she has been gifted to write original music, plays piano and guitar.

While serving on various worship teams, she has formed deep and impactful friendships with other band members, ultimately being mentored by dynamic Worship leaders, who have been very instrumental in where she is today in her faith walk.  They have also inspired her desire to serve the Lord by leading others in worship. 
 
Angela was honored to be called to serve as the Partnerships Manager for the “Be Bold for Jesus” conference in 2023.  Upon completion of that project, she felt the Lord calling her to finish what she had started a year earlier --- forming a Christian Worship Band, through faith.  Being asked to provide music for the Northwest Christian Singles gathering on January 13th, 2024, with only a couple days’ notice, the Lord quickly assembled the beginning of the “In Faith” team.  He continues to guide the steps, illuminate the path, and direct the team and its members.  He is faithful!  … ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the LORD of hosts. (Zechariah 4:6).
​
Angela married Will Kessel in 2024, and has two grown sons, a daughter-in-law, and a grandbaby, and by the grace of God, an additional four adult "bonus" sons via her marriage to Will!  All the boys share her love of riding!  She loves living a “country life”, hunting, fishing, hiking, riding ATV’s and even loves going back to her “roots” in the saddle of a Harley!
 
She is passionate about worshipping God and, together with her talented team, is excited to experience this amazing weekend with you!  All Glory to GOD!
