“It is a privilege and honor from God to be a Pastor! And it is also a joy to be the Pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church. The hunger of the members for God’s Word, and the love of the members for myself, my family, and for one another is so wonderful to see and experience. I am both a pastor, and a child of God, because Jesus loved me, and gave Himself up for me, on the cross!
I am blessed to have a wonderful wife, Elizabeth, and also three beautiful children: Micah, Anna. and Rachel. All of them are undeserved gifts of God. And I would not be able to succeed at anything without them.
In my free time I love spending time with my family, going on walks with my wife, going to movies, walleye fishing (God created Bass so everyone could have fun. But He created walleye to separate the men from the boys.), cheering on the St. Louis Cardinals, gardening and landscaping, watching ‘The Curse Of Oak Island’ on TV, traveling to places I’ve never been, visiting and playing games with friends, and eating great food!
I am so blessed to serve the Lord at Trinity Lutheran!
I actually joined Trinity’s Quilting Group in 2014, and I continue to be a part of that group to this day.
In 2016, I had the privilege of becoming the secretary at Trinity Lutheran. In my work, as secretary, I continue to ask God to guide and direct me, so I can do all my work accurately, and in a way that is both pleasing to Him, and to best serve the wonderful members at Trinity.
I have been married to my husband, Tom, for over 40 years. We have two adult children, two adult grand-children, and one great grand-daughter. We also have a dog named ‘Rascal’, who truly lives up to his name.
In my free time, I enjoy quilting, sewing, and traveling. I especially love going to the ocean, walking on the beach, and collecting sea shells. Most of all, I enjoy gardening and working in the yard.
