ANDY RIEMERSMA
Lead Pastor

Andy was born and raised in Westfield, IN. He went to Westfield schools k-12 and played varsity basketball. After a series of three concussions in basketball, Andy gave up his goal to play college basketball. He was then called to full time ministry in the following summer of 2015 at Indiana Wesleyan University. God gave him a new dream: to see millions of people come to know Christ. Coming full circle moving back to his hometown in Westfield, he is leaning into the combination of his call to sports, hip-hop/spoken word, and church planting. His zeal for the Lord and his genuine love for people drive his leadership every day.

Andy has been recording and performing as a Hip Hop & Spoken Word artist since 2016. He has had the opportunity to perform at college campuses, conferences, churches, etc. Most recently, Andy performed as the opening artist for the 17th annual NBA All Star Gospel Celebration for All Star Weekend in Indianapolis in 2024.

ELDERS

PHIL NETTLETON
Elder 

Phil’s parents were co-pastors in churches in several western states. From an early age he witnessed his parents leading people to follow Jesus. Many families were from underserved communities, needing physical and economic help, as well as spiritual guidance. Phil’s parents’ home and hearts were always open to people in need. Growing up in this environment prepared him to willingly accept God’s call into full-time ministry. To follow God’s leading, he enrolled in the pastoral ministry program at Oklahoma Wesleyan University in Bartlesville, OK. While at Oklahoma Wesleyan, he met Lucille who was studying to be a teacher. Lucille grew up in a loving family who did farming and ranching in Southeastern Colorado. After Phil graduated they were married and moved to their first pastorate in Lincoln, Nebraska. Over the next sixteen years he served in four churches in 3 states. Lucille completed her teacher training and then taught in elementary schools in Southern California. In 1982, the Lord called the Nettletons to missionary work and they moved to Papua New Guinea. For 32 years they served in missions ministries in five countries. The last ten years overseas they did member care work, serving as pastors to missionaries with Global Partners workers in Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Lucille was the educational consultant for missionary families around the world. The Nettletons love people and are thrilled to be part of ONE Church. They have three sons, all are married and each with two children. God has given them six grandchildren and one great grandson. Their entire family is endeavoring to faithfully follow the Lord.

KEVIN BATMAN
Elder, Treasurer

Since the doors first opened in January 2022, Kevin Batman and his wife, Teresa, have felt a sense of “home” at ONE Church. Both Kevin and Teresa were blessed to grow up in pastors’ homes where spiritual care and ministering to the needs of others as devoted Christ-followers have been a passion for generations. They believe that the greatest blessing is to be part of a local church where God’s love becomes a reality for the one and lives are transformed.

 

As the General Treasurer/CFO of The Wesleyan Church since 2007, God has opened doors for Kevin to use his skills and experience as a CPA to vocationally serve the Church as a leader, financial advisor, and board member of multiple Christian ministries in North America and around the world. Teresa is a medical social worker with a calling and passion for hospice care. Together, they have four adult children, including a married son. One of Kevin’s favorite pastimes is nerding out on history and has a shared passion with Teresa for IndyCar racing.
