Meet Pastor Joseph

Pastor Joseph graduated from Wartburg Theological Seminary in May of 2023 with his Master of Divinity.  Prior to seminary, Pastor Joseph studied music and religion at Luther College and spent his summers working at Upper Missouri Ministry Bible Camp in Epping, ND where he met his wife Paige.  Together they have two cats named Simon and River and a dog name Luz.

Pastor Joseph is passionate about living into the full expression of who God calls us to be as people of God and as a community of God.  He comes from a diverse religious background and has a history of Ecumenical work.  He is excited to continue his ministry in Wasilla, Alaska after recently moving from Bethany Lutheran Church in Wisconsin.

In his free time he enjoys playing tennis, board games, cooking, and spending time with his wife and animals.

Meet Our Office Administrator Tracy

If you stop by Good Shepherd, you’ll likely be greeted by Tracy and a fresh pot of coffee!  Our friendly Office Administrator enjoys getting to know everyone who walks through the doors.  When she’s not at church, she’s out fishing, hiking, rooting for the Green Bay Packers, and spending time with her golden retriever, Pretzel.  Go Pack Go!
