Brenden Archer - Worship & Communications Director

Brenden was born in southern California, and later moved up to Spokane in 2006, and he has lived in Spokane ever since. In 2013, he started attending Indian Trail Church, where he met several close friends, and several godly men who discipled him throughout much of his life. A few years after he started attending Indian Trail, the Lord saved him, and he began to put his faith and trust in God rather than in what he could do himself.

A graduate of Shadle Park High School and Whitworth University, Brenden remembers loving music at an early age. He got his first (toy) drum set when he was two years old, and continued to pursue his classical study of percussion through his undergraduate degree in music. Throughout high school and college, Brenden got to be a part of several worship teams at Indian Trail, learning to play the guitar and piano along the way, and led children’s worship ministry there for four years. In the fall of 2024, Brenden joined the team as Fourth Memorial Church’s Worship Director.

Brenden holds a Bachelor’s degree in Music, and a Master’s degree in Business Administration. When Brenden isn’t playing a musical instrument, he loves being outside, playing sports with friends (tennis, volleyball, and ultimate frisbee are his favorites), and reading.
