Our Vision
Compelled by Christ's love and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we will become a community of Jesus followers who:
- are a vibrant, diverse multigenerational community of people who experience life as the family of Christ.
- are serving our congregation and community with our finances, through caring ministry and connecting with children.
- have a place of our own from which to expand these ministries and their impact.
Our Gathering Place
Meet our Pastor
Dave Hall is Joy’s pastor. He was born in Colorado Springs and spent most of his growing up years there while also living in Wesel, Germany and Lawton, OK.
He met his wife, Stacy, at Concordia University - Nebraska and they were married at Trinity Lutheran in Miles City, Stacy’s home church.
They are blessed with two adult children, who live in Pueblo and Ft. Collins, CO.
If you think they’re empty nesters, guess again. They have a dog who is a schnauzer poodle mix (aka schnoodle) named Tiny, who is blind.
Stacy and Dave enjoy hiking, quiet Friday nights with pizza and a movie, and getting out to enjoy live music. Dave also enjoys rooting for the Denver Broncos.
Dave earned a BA in Communication/Theater Arts from Concordia University in Seward, NE an a M. Div. from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, MO. He has served congregations in Leavenworth, Colby, and Topeka, KS as well as Colorado Springs, and Boulder, CO.
