The Village Christian Church
Coal City Worship Leader

April Nykaza

Growing up as a pastor’s kid with her mom as the worship leader provided April with the opportunity to experience the joy of worship through music week in and week out.

“Without fail, every time I sing as part of our Worship Team, I feel the presence of the Holy Spirit and I cannot help but smile and lift my hands to the Lord. Luke 1:37 says, “Faith doesn’t make things easy, it makes them possible.” I know without a doubt that God has good plans for each and every one of us. It is my hope and prayer that people will lean into their faith each week and allow God to work in and through them through the scriptures brought to life through song.”

April and her husband Michael reside in Lockport with their three boys and have been attending The Village since opening day in October 2004. April has served in many roles including Kid Village, First Impressions Coffee Center as well as the Worship Team.
