As Riv’s Content Coordinator, Hannah Bowman keeps the creative wheels turning. Think of her less like a social media manager and more like a behind-the-scenes project wrangler—helping the content team stay organized, on schedule, and focused as they produce the many pieces that support Riv’s ministry. She brings clarity and momentum to creative work that impacts every part of the church.

Hannah grew up in a Christian home where faith and church were central to her upbringing. She became a follower of Jesus at a young age and has been learning ever since what it means to “Love Like Him.” One verse that’s especially meaningful to her is Psalm 116:8–9:

“For You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling. I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.”

She loves how it poetically captures the nearness and care of God in her life.

In her free time, you’ll often find Hannah hanging out with her nieces and nephews—whether they’re cooking, drawing, or racing in Mario Kart (which she insists she usually wins). She’s a big fan of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, loves the 1993 film adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing, and proudly recommends her nephew’s LEGO stop-motion YouTube channel, @coolkidsstopmotion.

Her favorite Lansing spots? Horrocks for everyday vibes, and the peaceful countryside of Bath—where she grew up—for a deeper breath of home.

Hannah began attending Riv regularly in the summer of 2024 and now plays a key role in helping tell the story of what God is doing in and through our church.
