ZION LUTHERAN CHURCH - Key Persons
I have had the pleasure of working in the office at Zion Lutheran Church for 15 years. I have been married to my husband Ken for 40 years. We have 4 children (all attended Zion Lutheran Church) and 7 grandchildren (number 8 is on the way). I enjoy interacting with the students at Zion and helping anyone that needs assistance. If you can't find me, I'm usually outside in the garden.
I am the pastor at Zion Lutheran Church and School in Denver, CO. In 2006, I received my Bachelor's degree from Martin Luther College in New Ulm, MN, and I received my Master of Divinity degree from Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary in Mequon, WI, in 2010. My wife, Michelle, and I have three children (who all attend Zion's school). We have lived in Denver and served at Zion for the last 12 years, and we thoroughly enjoy raising our family here in such a beautiful area of the country.
It is my privilege to serve as a pastor-in-training at Zion Lutheran Church for the 2023-2024 school year. I teach 5th and 6th grade catechism and Word of God classes. I got married in July to Faith who is currently working at an early childhood education center in Englewood. We will be returning to Mequon, WI in the summer to finish up my schooling for the full-time ministry.
I have been the kindergarten teacher at Zion Lutheran Church in Denver, CO since 2011. I received my Bachelor's degree in Education from Dr. Martin Luther College (now Martin Luther College) in 1984. I have taught PreK, Kindergarten, 1st & 2nd, 2nd & 3rd and 3rd-4th-5th grade classes. I am originally from Brillion, WI and enjoy hiking, reading and spending time with my family.
