Grace Church

 

Hello!  I’m Andrew Langseth, the Pastor of Student Ministries and Worship here at Grace church.  Here’s a little of my story.  I guess the best place to start is to tell how we got here.  My wife Claire and I were married in 2005.  I finished my education at Northwestern College in St. Paul, MN in 2007 while also serving at Grace Church in Roseville as an Intern, working with the youth group and leading worship on Sunday mornings as well.  We felt an increasing call to the ministry and so Claire and I prayed together, praying that if it was His will, God would provide us with an opportunity to serve Him.  I even prayed specifically for a position the Stewartville area.  THAT NIGHT, pastor John Grams called us to tell us about the Associate Pastor of Worship and Student Ministries they had opening up soon and ask if we might be interested or looking.  God answers prayer!

In a few short weeks we moved to Stewartville and are loving every minute of it.  God continues to amaze us with His faithfulness and provision.  My vision statement is Colossians 1:28-29 - "Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.  For this I toil, struggling with all his energy that he powerfully works within me."  It is truly my desire to invest into disciples that will make disciples and to be a beacon of light and hope in the community of Stewartville and SE Minnesota.  It is a joy to serve Christ’s church here with my wife Claire and our four children Josh, Abbie, Asher and Elisabeth.

If you are, or have kids, in 6th-12th grade, I invite you to come meet with us!  During the school year, Junior High meets from 3:30 - 5:00 and Senior High from 7:00 - 8:30.  During the Summer months, our “Summer Tour” takes us from home to home on Sunday nights, 6:00-9:00.  Check out our Student Ministries page for even more information!!
