Meet the Pastor
Pastor Aden might be new to St. John-St. James, but he is not new to ministry. His twentieth anniversary serving in public ministry is in 2017. His first years of ministry were spent in the Suburbs of St. Paul, MN starting a mission congregation. More recently he served in Appleton, WI as the Family and Early Childhood Pastor. Pastor Aden started his work here in, Reedsville, in the spring of 2016.
Pastor and his wife, Karla, have been married for over twenty years and have been blessed with four children. Their oldest daughter, Lydia, lives and is employed in Reedsville. Maya and Josh are in high school. Their youngest, Anna, attends school at St. John – St. James.
When Pastor is not in the office, he enjoys cooking, time with family, playing games, or being outdoors and sitting on the sidelines watching (or coaching) sports.
