The Team

Eveline Nachtegaele

Co-Founder / Singer-Songwriter / Chaplain

Eveline Nachtegaele was born the tenth of twelve children in Saskatchewan, Canada. She wrote her first song at fourteen and, after marrying Robert at seventeen, lived farm life and raised four children while carrying a dream to become a singer-songwriter.

She recorded in Nashville, sang on the Grand Ole Opry Gospel Hour, released English songs on Canadian country radio, and was commissioned by Radio Canada to record original French songs for airplay across the country.

After a serious throat/thyroid cancer scare, Eveline surrendered totally to Jesus and focused her music on faith, family, and the Lord. She traveled and performed for the unborn child and the pro-life cause, later writing and recording songs including Let Me Live and Mommy.

In 1993 she and Robert moved their family to California, where she wrote God In Heaven for Bosnian relief. In 1997 they moved to Texas, where Eveline became a Catholic volunteer assistant chaplain at the local county jail and began music ministry in Texas prisons.

Kevin Cadenhead

Co-Founder / Singer-Songwriter / Vocalist / Guitarist

Kevin Cadenhead is a native Texan who has lived most of his life in Brazoria County. He graduated from Columbia High School in 1982 and Tarleton State University in 1986, married his high school sweetheart Angie Danford in 1985, and became a Certified Public Accountant in 1989.

Kevin grew up at West Columbia First Baptist Church, later attended the Catholic Church with Angie, was married in the Catholic Church, and converted to Catholicism after a year of one-on-one conversations with Father Anthony Orlando of St. Joseph Catholic Church.

At St. Joseph in Brazoria he served in Confirmation, youth ministry, music ministry, finance committee, and capital/building campaigns. Eveline invited him to sing with a new choir and later taught him guitar.

Kevin joined Eveline at a Texas prison unit, where the visit became a new call to ministry. Through Loves Gate he has served in Texas prisons, local jails, churches, and youth groups, bringing praise-and-worship music and encouragement where God's presence is needed.
