Kevin is from the bagel and pizza capital of the world - Long Island, New York! He's a second-generation Salvadorian who lives in the "hyphen" of Salvadorian-American. He's a graduate of Liberty University with a degree in Psychology. He attended Reformed Theological Seminary (Orlando) where he obtained his Master of Divinity. Kevin has been married to Beverly since 2013. They both said they would never marry another Salvadorian and they're grateful for God's sense of humor! They have three young children, Adriana, Diego, and Matias. After graduating seminary they moved to Queens, NYC where Kevin served on staff at a church. However, God had different plans and lead the Arevalos to Sugar Land! Kevin is excited to minister to the students and parents of Redeemer as well as provide oversight to the Community Groups. Kevin enjoys preaching (and learning about preaching), exploring the beauty of cities & urban areas, going on walks with the family, and hanging out with friends over good coffee. Kevin's upbringing has planted in his heart a domestic and international desire: to see the church in the States reflect gospel diversity and to some day help equip and train pastors in El Salvador.

Elana grew up in Georgia and Alabama and moved to Texas after marrying her husband, Nathan, in 2012. She and Nathan both attended the University of South Alabama (go Jags!), where she graduated with a Bachelors in Fine Art. 

After graduating, she worked as a graphic designer for 11 years while Nathan finished grad school and their family grew. Now, they have three wonderful kids and a scruffy little rescue terrier.

She loves art, crafts, reading, and singing, making children’s ministry the place to be! Being raised in the church and homeschooled along with her four siblings gave her a strong foundation in the gospel for which she is deeply grateful. She strives to support and encourage parents of Redeemer as they plant seeds of truth and disciple the youngest hearts of the body of Christ together!

Tim is from the great state of Oklahoma. He attended the University of Central Oklahoma where he completed his bachelors in music performance in trombone.  He then moved to New York City to attend the Manhattan School Of Music for his masters in music for bass trombone. While in New York City he met his future wife April, who was working on her masters in music for piano.  While living in NYC, Tim served as the worship music coordinator at Emmanuel Presbyterian Church. He soon realized that he had a great desire to produce and foster beautiful music in the church. They moved to Texas in 2015 and quickly found Redeemer SL to be the church community they gravitated towards. They love being a part of the community at Redeemer SL and find it invaluable that their two girls, Lydia and Stella, are nurtured and cared for by the entire church community as if they were their own children.
