His passion for his German Family across the pond and his lifelong dedication to education have been constant reflections of his commitment to God's calling. Whether in the classroom or the sanctuary, Pastor Ed has inspired others through his wisdom, compassion, and steadfast example of what it means to follow Christ wholeheartedly.

Though his formal pastoral role has changed, Pastor Ed’s influence and love continue to bless our church. We remain grateful for his years of service, leadership, and the genuine care he has poured into our congregation.
