Our Story

Bob and Nate met 6 years ago. Nate decided to go to the University of Minnesota to work with Bob. A summer changed Nate’s life. Bob and Nate had a dream to start a church on the campus of the U of M that would start other churches both near and far.

A team of students formed around this dream, and before it even had a name or a place for a big group to meet or knew much of anything, Jacob’s Well was formed.

The Gathering place has changed, and so have many of the faces (comes with being near a campus), the vision is still the same: defining the church not as a building, but as the shared life and mission of people following Jesus.

We’re still just trying to figure this whole thing out...
