As of November 1, 2026, Crouch Community Church has called Pastor Mike Jacobson to be our Senior Pastor. Our church is excited and energized.
Welcome, Pastor Mike
"Experienced and dedicated pastor with decades of ministry experience, a lifelong passion for serving God, and a heart for loving people and engaging the local community. Known for shepherding congregations, equipping leaders, and building discipleship pathways that help individuals grow in Christ and serve the church’s mission. Committed to fostering strong relationships, leading with compassion, and promoting spiritual growth through Christ-centered teaching and care, all while reflecting integrity, humility, and a servant’s heart for outreach.
Over the years, God has given me the privilege of serving in a variety of pastoral roles, including Lead Pastor, Interim Pastor, Student Ministries Pastor, Church Planter, and Administrative Pastor. Through those experiences, He has taught me that healthy churches are built on faithful Biblical teaching, genuine relationships, servant leadership, and a shared commitment to Christ's mission. Much of my ministry has involved helping churches navigate seasons of transition and address difficult issues with grace and truth. I have always believed that the role of a Senior Pastor extends far beyond preaching on Sunday mornings. He is called to faithfully preach the Word, love people, and engage the surrounding community.
My desire is to build on the foundation God has already established in the Garden Valley community. I seek to earn the trust of the congregation, strengthen families, and serve alongside the church's leadership as together we seek God's direction for the future.
My wife, Angie, and I have been married for over forty years and have shared every season of ministry together. Angie has faithfully served in numerous areas of church life and is especially gifted at building relationships with people. Throughout our ministry, she has been a tremendous encouragement and faithful ministry partner.
Together, we count it a privilege to be part of the Crouch Community Church family."
