Read some FunFacts about Lou!
Lou and Kris Rhoades are the founders of The Well Ministries and 2 of the 3 original members of Chalice. Their complete bio is available as members of the board of directors of the ministry.
Also serving as the worship leaders for The First Church of the Open Bible in McKeesport, they have always had a desire to share the Gospel Message in song and testimony.
Lou has been involved in music since his early school years by participating in the school musicals and McKeesport Little Theater. He also volunteered for 2½ years as a tenor singer for Three Rivers Gospel Quartet, where he acquired his love for Southern Gospel music.
Their greatest desire is to see people draw closer to the Lord, knowing His wonderful presence.
The parents of three children, their ministry has always been a “family” ministry. Their children have always been involved in ministry in one way or another, either singing, puppeteering, helping carry equipment, or working the product table. Their family grew in May 2004 when their oldest son, Lance married Amanda Coddington, who actually is Gary’s daughter. Many people think the kids met because Gary started singing with Chalice but actually Chalice met Gary because the kids were dating.
