Adam Krumrie, Worship Pastor

Adam has been interested in making music since he was three. Over the years he learned piano and trumpet, then taught himself guitar in high school, which is also when his passion for the Lord grew. After high school, Adam developed the heart of a worship leader as he became responsible for leading and making disciples of the youth in his former youth group, and was given experience in other churches.

Adam has been serving as Shalom's Worship Pastor since he graduated from Northwestern College of Roseville, Minnesota in 2001. Before that he led worship for churches in Anoka, Brooklyn Park and West Bloomington and also served as worship leader for Northwestern College. As Shalom's Worship Pastor, Adam says God is "continuing to shape my heart and teach me what it means to be a true worshipper of Him."

Adam is married to "the most beautiful woman I know . . . my best friend" Ginny. They have two mighty sons, Josiah and Conner and their princess, Elizabeth Joy.
