​Kelsey Gould-Mertens

        Kelsey at age 24 is the oldest daughter and sings the lead part.  She started singing when she was 10 and enjoys playing piano as well.  In high school, Kelsey excelled in softball and is well known for her 3rd baseman and pitching abilities.

     Kelsey is now graduated and completed her years in college. She attended Crowder College in Webb City, Missouri and studied Elementary Education.  Kelsey has a true gift when working with children.  She shows them the love of Christ while reaching them on their level.  

On July 15, 2017 Kelsey married Colton Mertens in our hometown of Joplin. You can learn more about Colton on his bio page.

Kelsey now owns a home decor business known as Plain&Simple Decor. Tim Gould does all of the custom wood working while Kelsey does all of the hand painting and designing. All proceeds made through Plain&Simple go directly back into The Gould's Ministry. Check out the website at www.plainandsimpledecor.com

Most of all Kelsey is a young woman who loves the Lord and has a special place in her heart for others. Knowing she has been called to sing, Kelsey enjoys encouraging and sharing the Gospel with people of all ages.
