Eva Kroon Pike
Eva Kroon Pike is a native to Lakeland and is no stranger to Women of Compassion and One More Child. At 10 weeks old Eva was adopted into a loving family that had been waiting and praying for a baby girl for 6 years. These circumstances nurtured Eva into the singer/songwriter/worship leader she is today.
Eva is the Chapel Worship Leader at Ardella Baptist Church. Prior to joining Ardella Eva served in several local churches as worship leader and before that she had the wonderful opportunity to travel and share her music through concerts and radio throughout several cities and states. She has 2 albums titled “Grace That Chose Me” & “Love Is All About You” as well as a Christmas single “Christmas Revolution” and a contemporary single “Spoken For” cowritten with Conrad Johnson from Chris & Conrad. Through music, she wants more than ever to point people to Jesus.
Eva and her husband Jonny have been married for 20 years and have 5 children (4 boys and 1 girl). She loves Bible journaling, crafting, photography, spending time with her family, and vacationing at the beach, boating, and fishing. Eva is excited for the opportunity and blessed to be leading worship for Women of Compassion.
