CHURCH STAFF

After 42 years of serving as a Lutheran teacher at the elementary, secondary, and college levels, Joel Schuldheisz followed God’s calling to become a Pastor. God opened doors to enter the Specific Ministry Program, primarily an on-line program offered through Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, MO. Upon completion of his internship (vicarage) and coursework, Good Shepherd called Joel Schuldheisz to be their Pastor in December 2022.
Pastor Schuldheisz considers it an honor and privilege to share God’s Word and Sacraments with “the flock” at Good Shepherd and join them in their journey of serving and honoring God while growing in their faith and seeking opportunities to serve those in need. Mary Schuldheisz, Joel’s wife of 46 years, serves as a Pre-School administrator at St. Luke’s Lutheran Church in Federal Way, WA; they have two married children and four grandchildren who live in the South Puget Sound area.
