I look forward to learning from Pastor Sharon and from each of the congregations that I will be working with. It is my hope that you will be able to learn from me and that together we will continue Knowing Christ and Making Christ Known. The next month or so will be spent getting to know everyone at all three congregations and learning the ropes. To the best of my ability I will support and pray with and for all of you, and I ask that you do the same for me. Many of you know Karl from his time as LC coordinator for the Western Region, and others became acquainted with him through his teaching parish at St. Mark's Lutheran in San Francisco.
