Pastors Tomi and Sanna Lehto
River Church Finland
Pastors Tomi and Sanna are the senior pastors of the River Church Finland for over 10 years. After graduating from the River Bible Institute in Tampa, Florida, they worked and served in the church for several more years until they experienced God’s call to go back to Finland.
They toured Finland as evangelists for 1.5 years, visiting all denominations in more than 40 locations, before God called them to start the River Church and Bible School in Finland.
In addition to the River Uusimaa church, there are also 8 satellite churches and 20 home groups throughout Finland. Their vision is to train up Finns for full-time ministry and work in the Kingdom of God. Hundreds of Finnish and English-speaking students have already graduated from RBI Finland in 11 years, and through the ministerial association (RCFMA), people have been and are being sent to missionary work and ordained for ministry. Pastor Tomi and Sanna’s TV program, Good Life, is broadcasted on television networks in Finland, Sweden, Estonia and via satellite around the world. River Church Finland’s online broadcasts are well-known and watched all over Northeast Europe.
Pastor Ben Kroeske
River Church Netherlands
Pastor Ben and his wife Jacky are the founders and leaders of the River Church in the Netherlands. After getting his Bachelors degree at the University of Nijmegen, he answered the call to go to Bible School at The River Bible Institute in Tampa, FL. There, he met his wife Jacky and they worked in the ministry at The River Tampa Bay for six years until the time came when God began to speak to them about a ministry of their own in the Netherlands.
With the vision, they arrived in the Netherlands and pioneered The River Amsterdam Church. In time, they also started The River Bible Institute Netherlands.
