It's a long road to become a Lutheran pastor, but it's a road filled with joy as I grow in God's Word.
Don't let the "Wisconsin" part to the synod's name fool you. WELS is world wide, not just in Wisconsin. We have churches scattered throughout the United States and in many foriegn countries.
The Seminary for our synod, Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary, is located in Mequon, WI. It is a small town North or Milwaukee, WI.
Right now I am currently serving as a Vicar at Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church in Columbia, TN. A vicar is kind of like an intern. I am learning the ropes from some one who is very good at being a pastor.
Before my family and I moved to TN, we lived on the North side on Milwaukee. We attended Loving Shepherd Lutheran Church.
It was in Milwaukee that I was first introduced to the use of pupperty as a ministry tool. I have always loved art and this seemed like something I would enjoy. I have found that using puppetry allows you to talk about Jesus in a non-threatening manner.
This page is largely dedicated to puppetry, religion, and my family. I hope you enjoy.
