Trinity Lutheran Church In Taylorville Says Goodbye To One And Hello To Another

TLC Child Care Plus held a reception last Friday honoring Marilyn Summers for her many years of service towards Child Care at the center’s baby room.  The Child Care Plus is located at 1010 North Webster and has been in operation for 20 years. 

Trinity Lutheran Church is also welcoming a new pastor.  Pastor Brian Johnston is coming to Taylorville from Janesville, Minnesota where he has served as an associate pastor for the last three years.  Johnston grew up in California and attended college at Concordia University in St. Paul, Minnesota. There he studied Christian Education to enter youth ministry as a Director of Christian Education, but enrolled at the Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana to become a pastor and Army Chaplain.

Pastor Johnston completed ROTC at the University of Minnesota and was commissioned as a US Army Officer in 2015.  He currently serves as a chaplain for the 13th Psychological Operations Battalion.  Johnston enjoys golf, reading, fishing, and is training his dog Ace to be a therapy dog. 

Pastor Johnston will be installed at a 4 PM Service on Sunday, December 18th followed by a reception in the Trinity Lutheran Church basement.  

 

Regional Radio News congratulates both Marilyn Summers and Pastor Johnston on their recent moves.
