Our Staff

Our church's staff supports the ministry of all member disciples at St. Paul's. The apostle Paul saw his role as one of equipping the saints for their work of sharing the good news. Although our roles and activities differ, we serve the same purpose and are there for one another.

During Summer Office Hours, staff will work both at church and at home, alternating days for coverage. Health precautions may be requested.

• Administrative Assistant Marina Mondragon will be in the office Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:30-11:30am, and Fridays from 8:30-10:00am.

• Pastor Stefan Munker will be in most Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings, with some other days and times as practical or needed. Friday is his day off, but he is always available for emergencies.

Stefan Munker

Pastor

Pastor Munker was born in Germany where he was baptized in the Lutheran church and came to faith in his youth. During a seminary exchange in the US, he met his wife Cynthia. She is pastoring at Mt. Zion Lutheran Church in Litchfield. Together they have a cat named Amber. Pastor Munker is excited about sharing the invitation to meet and follow Jesus. He is leading the "flock" of Jesus at St. Paul's in our shared worship, learning, and outreach.
