Staff and Elders

Brett Moser
Lead Pastor/Preaching PastorAfter seven years of youth and family ministry, Brett has answered the Spirit’s prompting to plant River City. God has given Brett a passion for both sharing the gift of salvation and the lifestyle of Christ’s disciples in today’s world. Jesus said, “If you love me, feed my sheep.” Brett, and his wife Shannon, love Jesus and desire to obey Him as they obey His call to minister in downtown Fargo. Brett’s primary roles at River City are speaking, teaching, missional community development, and discipleship training. In his spare time Brett can be found playing basketball, reffing volleyball and basketball games, and dancing and playing with his daughters, Aunika, Alayna and Autumn.

Jake Peterson
Worship Pastor/Little Bit of EverythingAs a college student, God gripped Jake’s heart with a vision of the Church living out the Gospel that pushed him into ministry. After 7 years serving as a worship leader and working with college students, God has affirmed the call help plant River City Church. Jake gives leadership to the corporate worship of River City, as well as working to develop the structural components to help River City accomplish its mission of making disciples through the Gospel. As odd as it might sound to some, He enjoys and thrives in the tangible “get it on paper” stuff… Who knew? Jake is married to Amy and they have two wonderful kids, Natalie and Benjamin. Jake enjoys time with his family, a good round of disk golf, playing football, and a hot cup of good coffee.

Dan Holder
Elder
Husband of Michelle, father of Josiah, Alayna, and Seth, teacher for 8 years, and now Assistant Principal at West Fargo High School, Dan was called to be an elder at River City Church in March 2011. The Holder family is excited about Jesus' call to make disciples in their own home, in their missional community, in this city, and throughout the world. Dan will preach occasionally and Michelle often sings on the worship team on Sunday mornings. Their home is a place where neighborhood friends are welcome and where they host a missional community. In his spare time, Dan can be found playing sports in the backyard with his kids, on family bike rides, taking in a Packer sporting event or concert, or out on a date with his lovely wife.
