After an extensive search conducted by our Sabbatical Task Force, we are pleased to announce that LCMC Interim Pastor Chris Townsend and his wife, Sara, will serve and worship with Faith in 2023!

Pastor Chris attended Arizona State University and Luther Seminary in St Paul, MN. He has served with congregations in Minnesota, Arizona, Florida, and California. Over the years, Sara has worked in management with National Car Rental and Alamo. In 2021, Chris retired as lead pastor of Emanuel Lutheran in Lodi, CA. He and Sara returned to Arizona and are currently supporting and worshiping with Hope Church in Phoenix.

We look forward to welcoming Pastor Chris and Sara in May!
