Rick Woodson – Minister - Bass Guitar / Piano
Rosie Woodson – Lead/Harmony Vocals
Rick and Rosie were part of the original family group, the Woodson Family, that started in May of 1981 in Jamestown, TN. Both are children of parents who were pastors and missionaries and spent much of their young lives traveling with them into the mission field.
No strangers to obeying the Lords call to service, they, along with Bill and Kim Woodson, packed up all their kids and moved, when called to do mission work, to Southwest Colorado in 1989. They changed the name of the group to “Wings of Love Ministries” in 1991.
Rick and Rosie have dedicated their lives to the Lord’s service and minister to those in need and those seeking truth. Together they have four children, seven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. In 2006 Rick became Pastor of Hosanna Fellowship in Lebanon, TN. Three of their four children and their spouses actively serve alongside Rick and Rosie at Hosanna Fellowship.
Rosie’s mother was a bit of a writer and wrote songs, sermons, and poems. While going through some of her mothers’ old letters Rosie found a song, written by her mother, called “Anchored in Jesus”. Her granddaughter added music and now “Anchored in Jesus” is on the latest Wings of Love project called, “By His Light”.
Thankful for their parents’ dedication to the Lord and to the service of others, Rick and Rosie tirelessly answer the call to preach the gospel to those that seek the truth. They have ministered and served on missions from the Navajo Reservation in Colorado to Uganda, Africa
Danny Hébert – Guitarist and Singer/Songwriter
Kay Hébert – Piano/Keyboard
Danny and Kay were asked to join Wings of Love in May of 2021. Their first performance was in Comanche, TX the following July at Zion Hill’s Church revival.
Danny and Kay are married and live in Tellico Plains, TN with their German Shephard Lucy.
Collectively they have been blessed with eight children, ten grandchildren, (number eleven due in January), and four great-grandchildren.
Both are experienced musicians; As a daughter of a pastor, Kay grew up playing and singing Southern Gospel and was the church pianist in her family’s church for many years. She also played piano and sang with The Hatfield’s, a gospel group from Jamestown, TN.
Danny has played with several bands over his career and travelled mostly in the southeastern US. Although new to the Southern Gospel genre, he has already accumulated his own collection of favorite Southern Gospel songs. Danny has also written several gospel songs of his own, four of which are on the new Wings of Love album, “By His Light”.
Danny’s songwriting inspiration comes from many places. Sometimes it’s from scripture study with his wife Kay, it has been from a special sermon, and sometimes it’s from a not too subtle push from the Holy Spirit.

Bill and Kim have been married for 46 years and have two sons and three granddaughters. Bill’s parents and grandparents were pastors, evangelists, and missionaries. Bill played drums growing up traveling with his parents as his sisters and dad sang.

During this time, Kim had an experience with the Lord, where He anointed her to minister in song. She is a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and daughter who went to college at 45 years old.
