Board of Directors
lisa Swallow - president
L.J. Swallow has been a Christian for over 30 years and has worked in faith-based non-profits for the past 18 years. During those 18 years, L.J. Swallow has served as a director of several faith-based non-profit boards. She has a BS Degree in the Arts from Black Hills State University, works as an Operations Director, and is also trained in Human Resources, Biblical Counseling, Critical Incident Stress Management, and Social Service Management. Lisa feels a deep call to be with the Lakota people and finds living within the culture a place to call home and reflect God’s Love for his creation. The creation of 7 Rivers was inspired by a vision Lisa had while visiting a Lakota Ministry on the reservation. This vision came during a 5-year time span of intense trials and life-changing events. The Holy Spirit moved Lisa to create 7 Rivers and then to finally record the journey for which God reveals his Love.
Debra Pack, Vice President
God has blessed us with Debbie Pack. She is currently an Account Executive at the University of Northwestern. Debbie has served in many non-profit capacities; including as the Resource and Development Manager at the Black Hills Area Habitat For Humanity, a KSLT radio announcer, and the former Executive Director for Volunteers of America in her hometown. Debbie brings many talents to the table along with being a lifelong professional musician and singer.
Christine Redden,
Secretary & Treasurer
Christine Redden started her faith as a child but over the years to follow, did not realize how one's faith would grow. The Lord has walked Christine through many chapters in life and continues to guide her on the path he has planned. Along that path, Christine worked with non-profits both Christian and others. The Lord has shared insights filling her with his spirit and sharing his blessings of true peace. Christine believes the Lord has brought this Board together for a great purpose and we, as a Board, will continue with his guidance.
