I’m glad that you found our web site. Hopefully, we’ll get a chance to meet,
to worship together and to share God’s story in your life and mine.

I graduated from Trinity Lutheran Seminary, Columbus, Ohio in 1999. Previous to that, I worked in Television and Radio in Cleveland and Cincinnati. Nancie and I just celebrated 25 years of marriage. Four children joined us along the way; Tom, Sarah, Andy and Abby.

I served a parish for 10 years in Medina County. As of July 2009, I feel blessed to be in ministry partnership at Zion. I trust that you will find the congregation as welcoming as Nancie and I did.

The peace of the Lord be with you!
