Church & Community Service

A lifelong Lutheran, I have served as a Sunday School teacher, adult Bible study leader, and Christian Education coordinator in my local congregation, and at the synod level as an elected member of the Board of Governors of Waterloo Lutheran Seminary (ELCIC) in Waterloo, Canada.

Currently I am a member of All Saints Lutheran Church (ELCA) in Davenport, Iowa. Christian education for adults is a continuing focus for me. Here's a list of some of the "talks" I've done in the Quad-Cities:
