Hi, I’m Pastor Eric, an associate pastor at Foothills Lutheran Church. Originally from Kitchener Ontario, Music degree from Concordia in Edmonton, CREW Ministry alum, and ordained and installed at Foothills Lutheran Church, August of 2015.

Being involved in U of C campus outreach, youth ministry, and music are some of my greatest joys as part of my work at Foothills. I’m very excited to be at Foothills. It is a great blessing to be able to preach and teach God’s Word and be among the people at Foothills. Stop by my office anytime, call, or shoot me an email at flcpastoreric@foothillslutheran.com.

I’m married to my lovely wife Kayla (who thankfully puts up with my shenanigans, and she’s incredible) and we are very happy dog owners of their dog Dash.

I’m also a slo-pitch ace, big movie and board game buff, and a sports enthusiast of all kinds. I also tell the worst jokes, it’s true i have references.

God’s blessing to you,

Pastor Eric, B.A., M. Div., DM
