Kids Life Director
Michelle Powell
Michelle and her husband, Mark, have lived in Ashland for the last 18 years where they’ve been busy raising their six children and one nephew.
Michelle loves that there is "never a dull moment" in her large family. With each twist and turn of family life, there’s always another opportunity to trust God.
If you were to ask her, she would tell you that her heart for Riverview is to see God transforming ladies from the inside out. There’s nothing better than having a front-row seat to all that God continues to do through coming alongside side of people through care and support.

Care & Support Director
Rita Bailey
Rita and her husband, Brad, lived in Lincoln before moving to Ashland close to 5 years ago. They have 5 children and 10 grandchildren which makes for quite a houseful when they’re all together.
Prior to joining the RCC staff, she worked in Lincoln as a middle school math teacher before retiring after 25 years. She enjoys traveling and spending time with family and friends.
If you were to ask her, she would tell you that her heart for Riverview is the hope that every person who walks through our doors would feel welcomed and cared for. That every person would know, for certain, that the God of the universe loves them and seeks to have a personal relationship with them.
