Pastor Ext. 103
rob@stlukesbloomington.org
Child of God, Husband, Father, Pastor, Friend, and Neighbor.
I grew up in the church, but did not get caught by the Spirit until I attended Bible Camp. Went to camp as a camper, camp staff member, and as a church staff member for 39 consecutive summers. Previously I served at Bethlehem Lutheran of the Twin Cities for 26 years in a variety of roles, Youth Minister, Intern Pastor, Youth Pastor, and Lead Pastor for Spirit Garage, an outreach worship ministry of Bethlehem. All of these roles have helped shape and mold me into the pastor I am today. Looking forward to continuing to learn and grow in the years ahead here at St. Luke’s.
A number of Bible passages speak to me. (My paraphrases)
Genesis 12:1-3 = We are Blessed to be a Blessing!
Isaiah 43 = God knows us by name, for we are precious, honored and loved.
Psalm 139 = Where can we flee from God's Spirit? If I go up to the heavens you are there. If I go down to Sheol even there you will find me.
John 10:10 = Jesus declared, "The thief comes to kill, steal, and destroy, but I came that you may have life in abundance."
Acts 1:8 = Jesus said, "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” - - Note Jesus called us to be "Witnesses" not the judge or the jury!
Matthew 12:30 = It comes down to simply this, Love God and all people.
Some of my outside activities include: Serving on the Thrivent Credit Union Board of Directors. Staying active: I've run 13 marathons, play basketball, Golf, Sail Lake Superior around the Apostle Islands, and coach my sons' soccer, basketball and baseball teams. Most of all I love being a dad and husband. Married to Nancy, a preschool teacher in Bloomington. We have two sons, Ethan is in college and Eli is in high school.

Heather grew up in Burnsville, MN and met her husband Tony when she was 15. They married 5 years later and have a daughter and a son. One of their favorite things to do as a family is go camping in their trailer and listen to old time radio shows like 'The Shadow.' Another passion is animals...especially cats! One day she would like to work in hospice and be the listening ear to people's worries and share God's love and grace to give them peace.
