Scott was first introduced to the Lutheran Church by a friend in college. From a “rediscovery” of faith, to a love for worship, to a call to serve, much has followed from that simple invitation. Because of this, Scott is passionate about helping others connect their lives to the life of Jesus Christ and to His Church.
Ordained by the ELCA in 1998, Scott served congregations in Sheffield and Ludlow, Pennsylvania, as well as Roanoke and Virginia Beach, Virginia prior to being called to First Lutheran in 2022. His areas of focus include discipleship, marriage ministry, stewardship, leading small groups, and worship. Scott is a trained Healthy Congregations facilitator for the Virginia Synod, and a regular small group leader at the Synod’s youth retreats.
Scott is a graduate of Clemson University (B.S. Chemical Engr.) and of the Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary (M.Div.). He enjoys playing music, photography, and homebrewing, but most especially spending time with his wife Cathy and their two children.
