Jesse has been leading The River’s worship band since 2016 and has added his own unique talent to the role. He focuses on worshiping our Lord and creating a space where people can spend time in God’s presence is noticeable each week. One of his favorite highlights from his first year was during the Easter service when the band played “Resurrecting” for the first time.

The River’s band, often self-titled as The Island of Misfit Toys, includes Dan Kuehn, Jim Leslie, Matt Klevemann, Jim Burger, Marlena Freynik, Rachel McCormick, Corinne Baker, Leanne Leslie and Nicky Magnelli.
