Our Pastor

In September of 2005, Pastor met his future bride, Angilena (Angie) Eastman, from Midland, MI. The couple was joined in holy marriage on December 30, 2006. They have three children.
The Lord called Angie home to heaven after a battle with cancer in January of 2020.
Pastor is an avid fan of all Wisconsin sports teams, especially the Packers, Brewers, and Badgers – but he prays that the Lion, Tiger, and Wolverine/Spartan fans won’t hold any of this against him. He enjoys outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, and camping.
Pastor was installed on January 14th, 2018 to serve Good Shepherd and St. John's. He loves to meet and talk to people and is loves to make contacts and friends in the Gladwin and Beaverton area. He is also looking forward to the Lord’s rich blessings as the St. John’s and Good Shepherd congregations work together to proclaim the saving gospel of sins forgiven through the saving work of Jesus Christ.
