Meet Our Team

Senior Pastor
Pastor Lowell Busman
Lowell has served as a pastor at River of Hope since 2008. Lowell was raised in a Christian home and became a believer at a young age. After a career in agricultural and environmental science, he felt God calling him to full-time ministry. After completing a degree from Bethel Seminary, he and his wife Carol became part of the ministry team at ROH. They have two wonderful children and six grandchildren. Lowell has a passion for prayer and revival, and for raising up the next generation to lead the church forward.

Worship Director
Jonny Maxcy
Jonny grew up in Western Nebraska (think Oregon Trail--Chimney Rock.) He comes from a line of Methodist Circuit Riders (on both sides of his family.) He came to Christ from a new age background and has served in full-time ministry across the Twin Cities in various House of Prayer type ministries. Jonny also does short-term "musicianary" work in the Middle East. He started attending ROH church in May 2020. Jonny is passionate about being a host for God's manifested glory for our whole city -- whether in leading worship, intercession, inner healing, or the arts. He has a deep appreciation for the freedom he has experienced in his struggles with brokenness and is passionate about others finding the same in God's presence. Jonny also makes a mean cup of joe and loves his orange tabby tom cat.

Children's Director
Charlene Randall
Charlene grew up in rural South Dakota, coming to Christ at an early age through the influence of family and church. There were urban missionaries on both sides of her extended family who influenced her lifelong love for the city. From the ups and downs condo life; to the richness of urban artistic opportunities; to the variety of people and cultures present; since 2008, there has been no place like Prospect Park in Minneapolis for her as there is no place like home. Currently Charlene is leading efforts to develop the Children’s Ministry at River of Hope including Sunday Morning Children’s Time. She is also keenly interested in launching an Awana Club at our new facility. If Awana in Prospect Park interests you, please contact Charlene.
