Meet Pastor John
My name is John Laatsch, and I currently serve as pastor at Faith United Evangelical Lutheran Church. I grew up in Tigerton, Wisconsin. My wife, Kathryn Eggert from Shawano, and I were married in 1983 and have been blessed with three children, Sarah, Faith, and John Mark. We have also been blessed with five wonderful grandchildren.
I graduated from Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana, in 1986. My first call was to the dual parish of St. John in Vincent, Iowa, and St. Peter in Woolstock, Iowa, where I served from 1986 to 1990. I then served Immanuel Lutheran in Breed, WI, and St. John’s Riverside in Gillett, WI from 1990 to 1996. From 1996 until 2006, I served St. John in Pulcifer and Immanuel in Gillett. In 2006, those congregations merged to become Faith United, and I’ve had the joy and privilege of serving here ever since.
In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar, violin, and piano.
My favorite Bible verses is Zephaniah 3:17: “The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”
