John "JJ" Dygert 
Pastor

With overwhelming approval, Pastor JJ Dygert has been called to be the new pastor of KFLC.  
Pastor JJ comes to us with fifteen years of experience, having spent two years in Northern Light Parish, North Dakota, and the last thirteen years at Christ the King Lutheran in Milton-Freewater, Oregon.

Pastor JJ states that in his roles as a child of God, husband to Heather, father to Colin and Kyle, and Pastor, he is called to "live a life grounded in God's love, to pronounce forgiveness and reconciliation, and to help parishioners gain a better understanding of what God has in store for them."

In his free time, Pastor JJ enjoys all sports, but is especially fond of soccer and golf.  We look forward to having him start January 16, 2019.
