Pastor Emeritus Steve and Joan Crombie

Part of the original team of people that helped plant The River Church back in 1997, Steve and Joan Crombie have faithfully pastored the congregation since August 2001 and are still very involved in the ministry today.

Married since 1985, the couple has five children and fifteen grandchildren. Pastor Steve and Joan have had a love for the Faribault community since they moved here in 1986. They want to see Jesus exalted here and God’s kingdom established in both Faribault and the surrounding area.
