Duke Lutherans are blessed by the support and love of the entire St. Paul's community.  However, certain individuals play a particularly important role in this diverse ministry.

As Pastor of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, I am thrilled with the ministry of Duke Lutherans. Our congregation is ready to support you in many ways including worship, fellowship, and mission.  With our Chaplain and Vicar, I join them in serving you.  St. Paul’s family also offers you a home away from home, not only in worship, but also in our family-partnering/adoption program.  Consider yourself a part of the community of faith at St. Paul’s and Duke Lutherans during your educational years at Duke.  God’s blessings and peace as you continue to pursue your intended vocation.  If you need pastoral care or a pastoral help or conversation, please contact me.

Greetings! I am Vicar Andrew from St. Paul's Lutheran Church. I specifically work with the undergraduate Duke Lutherans and serve as both a spiritual leader for students—leading Bible studies, retreats etc—as a well as a liaison for St. Paul's Lutheran Church. I want to encourage anyone and everyone to come by our space in the chapel for conversation, study, worship, as well as laughs, food and chocolate. I look forward to meeting you and sharing our real and ongoing faith stories. Please feel free to contact by phone or email.

Having been called by St. Paul's as a Diaconnal Minister to serve as Duke Lutheran Chaplain, I focus on graduate and professional students, as well as service opportunities and communications.  Nevertheless, I find great joy in interacting with all of the Duke Lutherans, sharing their faith journeys from adolesence into full adulthood.  From the good times and giggles to the quieter moments of doubt and faith, fear and confidence, it is a blessing to me to share those journeys, and with the help of the Holy Spirit, perhaps to touch a few lives.
