OUR TEAM

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

It’s been my pleasure to serve this community, while serving the Lord here at RCM for 20 years. Married for over 45 years to Mary, and blessed by 1 daughter and 3 grandchildren. I attended Harding University, and now serve as a shepherd and staff member for the Levy Church of Christ in North Little Rock. Everyday is unique at RCM. Meeting new neighbors and serving area churches are just two of the many blessings I enjoy about this work.

PROGRAMMING DIRECTOR

It’s my privilege to serve as the programming director and Summer Intern coordinator for RCM. I came to RCM as the Urban Ministry apprentice the summer of 2013. Since completing my degree in Biblical Studies, I received a Bachelor’s in Sociology, a Masters of Public Administration, and a Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Management from the University of Arkansas in Little Rock.

I also serve on the Advisory Committee for the Pulaski County Community Village, a tiny home village project forming to serve those experiencing homelessness in Pulaski County.

I am available for preaching, teaching bible class, offering training on working with impoverished and unhoused populations, and intern mentoring. Send me a message through the “Contact Us” form by clicking the tab above.

TRANSITIONAL HOUSING &
SOCIAL SERVICES DIRECTOR

FRONT DESK SUPERVISOR & PROPERTY MANAGER

I have been serving at RCM for ten years. I started as a volunteer in the food pantry for three years then got hired on staff to work at the front desk. I manage the properties and assist the people in our transitional housing program and enjoy building connections with local agencies to get the food and supply donations we need.

I am the proud parent of five and enjoy spending time with my grandkids. When I’m not at RCM, I enjoy dog training and spending time with my dog, Hunter.

BOOKKEEPER & GRANT MANAGER

When I came to RCM as a bachelor level social work student back in 2012, I had no clue what the Lord had in store for me in serving here.

Right after graduating from Harding University in 2012, and obtaining my LSW, I served as a case worker for the housing programs we administered. After wanting the opportunity to have a more flexible schedule in order to be present with my small children at the time, I started learning about grants and was able to transition and serve as RCM grant's manager. I served RCM in that role until my family moved out of state for my husband's military career in 2020.

After we moved back to Arkansas in 2021, it was clear that the Lord was opening doors for me to come back to RCM.

In January of 2022, I rejoined the team. I currently serve as our bookkeeper and grants manager. From a young age, I've had a desire to serve and connect with those in need and with people different from me. It is my passion to serve in the nonprofit sector and I'm grateful for the opportunity to use the gifts the Lord has given me to serve RCM.

MINISTER

I recently came on as the Minister in March 2022. In the short time I’ve been here, I have been impressed with what I have seen and how the staff and volunteers here at RCM embody what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the community.

After graduating from Harding University with a degree in Missions and Spanish, I went on to finish my Master of Divinity in May of 2021 from Harding School of Theology. I am excited that God has led me here and am looking forward to being a part of what God is doing through River City Ministry.

MEDICAL COORDINATOR &
BOOKKEEPING ASSISTANT

I have always lived by Mahatma Gandhi philosophy “Be the change that you wish to see in the world”.  In April of 2022, I was BLESSED with the opportunity to do just that. In my current position as Health Educator (Community Health Worker) here at River City Ministry.

Through my years of education, I attained a Bachelor’s of Arts in Sociology from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock and a Master’s of Arts in Management and Leadership from Webster University. 

Service is an important aspect of my life and I truly believe that if your passion is service, then you will never work a day in your life. This experience has richly blessed me with the opportunity to serve and I feel that this is a calling on my life. I am FOREVER grateful for River City Ministry.

CASE MANAGER & TAP COORDINATOR

When I came to RCM, I would sit in the ‘big room’ and study the Bible, and participate in the devotionals. From there I started volunteering in the food pantry and helping answer phones in the front office. I then started helping check messages in the Medical Clinic and setting appointments.

Today, I am a part-time employee, serving as the medical clinic coordinator. When I’m not connecting people at our clinic, I work with TAP to provide monthly bus passes for homeless people, and serve on the Board of the Arkansas Homeless Coalition.

DENTAL CLINIC ADMINISTRATOR

FOOD SERVICE & FACILITIES MANAGER

Even though it hasn’t been long since I started working with RCM, I’ve found a sense of purpose here. I want to give 100% of myself wherever I’m needed and this place gives me plenty of opportunities to serve.

I’ve spent my career in food service management, but here I’ve found it can be ministry if you do it with a spirit of love and service.

COOK

With over 23 years of culinary experine, I bring a wealth of expertise to my role as a cook here at River City. Embracing the opportunity to showcase my talent, I find immense satisfaction in preparing meals for individuals, infusing each dish with my passion and creativity. I delight in crafting delicious meals and serving in the name of Jesus.

CASE MANAGER

I am a sold out follower of Christ that has been delivered and set free from addiction and all that went with it! I am honored to serve along side the dedicated volunteers and staff of RCM.

I will be working as a case manager and a bridge for those who would like to get help with addiction and a whole new life with Jesus!

”For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

John 3:16-17

FOOD STOCK & DISTRIBUTION

I came to RCM as a housing client and started volunteering. Now I stock food, prepare food pantry, and serve breakfast. I enjoy preparing food for the hungry, and helping people any way I can. I try to always greet people with a smile and, before it’s all over, I usually have them smiling too.

X-RAY ASSISTANT

I have been a part of the RCM family for over a decade. I work as an assistant in the dental department and at the front desk. The Ministry has blessed my life in many ways, and I like to serve and help others by working here.

AUXILIARY

I'm a lifelong resident of North Little Rock. I graduated from Harding University with a BA in English and Psychology. I was called to RCM after working in the insurance industry and have found a home here with colleagues I love and a place in God's Kingdom to serve.
