Pastor and Staff

Welcome to Our Savior’s! I have been serving this congregation since May 2022, and my wife Jennifer and I think it’s a great place to raise a family.

I’m a 2011 graduate of Wartburg Theological Seminary in Dubuque, IA, and I previously served calls in Nebraska as a church planter.

We have four kids: Anneliese, Peter, Rebecca, and Laura. Jennifer stays home to homeschool the children and volunteer in the church and community.

In my previous career I ran a small software company in Missouri. I grew up in the St. Louis area and studied computer science and statistics at Truman State University.

Nowadays I enjoy reading, playing piano, board games, and shooting sports.

In addition to my ministry at Our Savior’s, I also serve in other roles in the community:

• President, Jackson County Ministerial Association

• President-elect, Shetek Lutheran Ministries

• Board Member, Fort Belmont

• Member, Opioid Settlement Advisory Council
