🌟Meet Mike Neidow🌟
Let’s get to know Pastor Mike, our beloved shepherd at Emmanuel Lutheran Church! 🐑 With nearly four decades of ministry experience, Pastor Mike has been sharing God's Word with our community for almost 19 years through school chapels, Bible studies, confirmation classes, silly costumes & “elevator rides”.
What does he love most about his role? It's the joy of spreading God's message and love to people of all ages, nurturing their faith journeys every step of the way. 🙏
Pastor Mike's journey in ministry began 40 years ago after his graduation from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis in 1984. 🎓 Since then, he has served in two other congregations – St. Paul in Fulton, MO, and Messiah in Lincoln, NE, before joining us here at Emmanuel in 2005. ⛪
In his family life, Pastor Mike is blessed with his loving wife, Patti, whom he married in 1985. Together, they have one son, Samuel, who is happily married to Caitlin. They've also been blessed with two grandsons, Bo and Albie, with a third grandson on the way in May! 👶💙
Let's give thanks for Pastor Mike's unwavering dedication to our congregation and the love he pours into our community every day! 🌟🙌 #PastorAppreciation #MeetOurStaff #TeamEF📖🙏
