I have been serving as the Facilities Manager at Faith Oakville since 2008. Over the years, I have enjoyed not only caring for the Faith campus, but also finding ways to help people connect, serve, and grow together as a church family.

I am actively involved in grassroots efforts throughout Faith, including organizing and supporting Men’s Life Group events and serving with the Lutheran Early Response Team (LERT). I  enjoy bringing people together, building relationships, and looking for practical ways Faith can serve both its members and the surrounding community.
My wife Donna and I  have been married for 17 years and enjoy serving in Student Ministry together in a variety of ways. Donna has been a Lutheran middle-school teacher for about 25 years, including the past 13 years at Green Park Lutheran School.

We have two children, Drew and Katie, who both attend Lutheran South. As a family, we enjoy supporting each other, being involved in school sports and church activities, and making the most of the time we have together.

Outside of Faith, I enjoy spending time with my family, following St. Louis Cardinals baseball, and finding new ways to serve and connect with others.
I am blessed and grateful for the opportunity to serve at Faith, and I consider it a privilege to be part of a church family that seeks to keep Jesus at the center while caring for one another and the community around us.

I was born and raised right here in the Oakville/Mehlville area, and have lived in the area my entire life. I grew up Catholic, but was just going through the motions until I found Faith Oakville in 2002. Faith has been an answer to my prayers! Since joining, the relationships that my family has made have been life-changing! (Especially with cancer and open heart surgery as part of our story, but there's not enough space on this page for that story!)

My wife Donna is a middle school language arts teacher at Green Park, and we have two children, Drew, who will be starting first grade, and Katie, who will be starting kindergarten, both at Green Park. Our family likes to serve at Camp Wartburg, St. Trinity Church, and wherever else we feel God calling us to.

I worked as a custodian for the Mehlville School District for 12 years before joining Faith in 2008 as the Facilities Manager. God is doing awesome things at Faith! If you are looking for a place to serve and grow as one of God’s children, then I challenge you to try us out. Everyone is welcome here, and we would love to help you find your place in God’s kingdom. God is good!
