Pastor Jeff Siegel
Pastor
Siegel grew up in Southern California, and after graduating
from high school he embarked on a career in the Air Force.
Although his career was mostly spent in a single career
field—communications and computer systems—his assignments
spanned the nation and the globe to include studies at the
Air Force Academy and the Naval Postgraduate School and five
years of service in Japan.
Pastor Siegel took his first steps towards entering the
ministry after he retired from the Air Force. He initially
sought ordination in the United Methodist Church by
enrolling at Asbury Theological Seminary, but as he studied
at Asbury he grew increasingly aware of conflicts between
what was being taught and what he read in the Bible. So,
after much prayer, reflection, and study, Pastor Siegel
joined the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) and
transferred to Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne,
Indiana.
His first call after graduating was to Saint
Paul Lutheran Church in Granite Falls, Minnesota. Saint Mary
Evangelical Lutheran Church called Pastor Siegel and
installed him as pastor in June, 2010. Pastor Siegel
continues to be an ordained minister of the LCMS of the
English District, serving Saint Mary as part of the LCMS's
commitment to supporting and encouraging confessional
Lutheranism.
Pastor Siegel met his wife, Gayl, after he retired from the
Air Force and was preparing to enter the ministry. Pastor
Siegel and Gayl are in the process of adopting a child from
China.
