Greetings! Thanks for visiting Pilgrim Lutheran Church and School on-line. My name is Scott Malme, and I serve as the Senior Pastor here at Pilgrim. I am originally from Minnesota, graduating from Concordia College, St. Paul in 1987. I studied for the ministry at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, receiving an M.Div. degree in 1991. I formerly served St. Paul Lutheran Church in Rockford, IL, and have been serving Pilgrim since September, 2001. We at Pilgrim look forward to God's desire for an exciting and growing ministry in the future and invite you to be a part of what God is doing here in any way possible. Please be encouraged to visit us here (on the web) or in person any time. We'd love to get to know you better and share the joy we know in Jesus Christ with you. If I can be of service to you, please contact me by sending a message on the Contact Us page under the Home tab. God's blessing to you, and again, thanks for visiting.

Rev. Hal Toenjes - Associate Pastor

Welcome to Pilgrim's place on the web! Are you looking for a church home in the Green Bay area? Looking for help? Just looking? Then as Pilgrim's Associate Pastor I would encourage you to visit us--either in person or through this website. I look forward to hearing from you or meeting you in person! Like Pastor Malme, I received my education from Concordia College, St. Paul, and from Concordia Seminary, St. Louis. I previously served as a pastor at Trinity Lutheran in Genoa, Illinois. But most recently I served cross-culturally as a missionary with my family among the Dhimba people in the country of Namibia (southern Africa) with Lutheran Bible Translators. If there is anything that I can do to serve you, please stop in, call or send me a message by clicking on "Contact Us" on the "Home" tab above. God's peace be with you! 

 

Jonathan Ripke - Vicar   
Greetings and welcome to Pilgrim’s website. We’d love to meet you in person as well. I will be serving as Pilgrim’s vicar during the 2009-2010 year. I grew up in Colorado, but have lived in Seward, Nebraska for the last few years. I graduated from Concordia University in Seward, and went straight to Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. In our third year of study, we serve a one-year vicarage internship, learning from the pastors (and congregation, too!) how to be a pastor.

I am blessed to be married to Megan. We were married in June 2009. I enjoy reading, running, and following the Denver-area sports teams.

Feel free to contact me via email, phone, or in person at the church office. I look forward to meeting you, and learning with you during the next year!

Hello, I am Maureen Seyferth. I have been the Church Secretary since April of 1997. I had been a volunteer for 3 years before that. I never knew what "Joy" was at a job before, until I started working here at Pilgrim! I am very grateful to everyone at Pilgrim, to be able to serve them and my Lord.
