Pastor Ken Nelson’s passions in ministry are preaching, teaching the Bible and finding new ways to connect people to Jesus Christ through worship, study, service and prayer. Pastor Ken is a graduate of the University of Minnesota where he studied accounting. He later graduated from Luther Seminary with a Master of Divinity and was ordained in 2000. Pastor Ken was called to serve in both Nebraska and North Dakota before joining Calvary Lutheran Church.

Pastoral Intern – Lynnae Douglas
Lynnae grew up in Rochester, NY but first made her way to the Midwest when she did her undergraduate studies at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago in Bible/TESOL and Linguistics. There she met Caleb, and they were married in 2012. Lynnae and Caleb planned on a life of ministry together, but the path took various twists and turns. They eventually began their seminary studies at the North American Lutheran Seminary in 2014, and four years and three kids later (Elias, Nathaniel and Joel on the way), Lynnae graduated in 2018 while Caleb was serving as an intern in Manhattan, NY. Lynnae loves to spend time with her family, especially exploring new parks, and she loves to study Scripture and theology. She is grateful to be learning at Calvary under Pastor Ken as she continues to discern her call to service in the church. When asked to describe his mom, her six-year old son came up with this great list: She laughs a lot, she makes funny faces, she does funny voices, she does wrinkly faces and she talks to people a lot
