A Letter From Pastor Ian

Dear Friends in Christ of Peace Lutheran and Trinity Lutheran,


It is with a heart full of both gratitude and bittersweet emotion that I write to share some significant news regarding my ministry. I have accepted a new call to serve as the University Pastor and Executive Director of Spiritual and Religious Life at Capital University and Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Bexley, Ohio. As many of you know, Trinity is where I graduated in 2019, and returning to my old stomping grounds to shepherd both undergraduate students and play a part in the formation of the next generation of pastors is an opportunity I feel deeply called to pursue.

Because of this transition, my last Sunday leading worship with you will be July 19th.

Looking back over these past seven years, I am overwhelmed by the depth of what we have shared together. We have walked through incredible seasons of change, not least of which was navigating the unprecedented challenges of the COVID pandemic, just six months into my ministry here. Through it all, you showed up with resilience, grace, and an unwavering commitment to our shared ministry.

Together, we weren’t afraid to dream or take risks. We attempted new things. Some of those ideas succeeded beautifully. Others failed. But what I will always cherish about Peace and Trinity is that we never let failure have the last word. We dusted ourselves off, learned, and we tried again. That spirit of holy experimentation and mutual trust has been one of the greatest gifts of my ordained ministry.

I am profoundly grateful for the privilege of being your pastor. You have been patient, kind, willing to try, and created a wonderful environment for Hans and Wren to grow to love God. Thank you for welcoming my family into your lives, for partnering with me in the Gospel, and for the countless ways you have loved and supported us. You have shaped me as a leader and as a person, and a piece of our collective McMichael heart will always remain here in Colfax and Endicott.

As Corrin, the kids, and I prepare for this next chapter, please know that you will remain in our prayers. I have every confidence that God, who began a good work in these congregations, will carry it on to completion.


Peace,

Pastor Ian

Harvey was our very special rider.

The Swedish fish and “testa-mints” were a big hit with the younger parade watchers!
