Christ Lutheran Parish

I have accepted a new call as co-pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Litchfield, Minnesota. Kateri, Augustin, and I appreciate all of the love and support we have received here in Ironwood. This is a bitter sweet moment for us as we begin to say goodbye to the friends we have made here.

There are many changes in store for all of us as we move forward discerning how God is using us and His Church to accomplish His purposes to love, save, and bless the world. My hope for you is that in the struggles to come you opt to be a part of His mission and where mere buildings and bank accounts stand in the way you gracefully bound over those obstacles choosing the "better part" of what God is doing in your context.

The future in Christ is full of hope, peace, and joy. Take hold of Christ and let go of all fears. Be not afraid, the Lord is with you.
