Show Notes

Following the founder must have been a tall task, but theological great, Theodor Jaekel was up to the job.   He pastored our congregation for 37 years and 11 month.   (He had the longest ministry at Grace until Pastor Huebners’ length of ministry here surpassed him in 2020.)    A great man of God and a respected leader for our congregation, Theodor was as his name (and his wife Theodora’s name too) suggests, a gift from God.   Enjoy listening to more of God’s Grace at Grace.

GOD"S GRACE AT GRACE

 God’s Grace has been abundant during the 170 years of the existence of Grace Lutheran Church in downtown Milwaukee.  He has watched over the life of this congregation and blessed it with his undeserved love! He has seen us through building projects, capital campaigns, declines in membership and growth.  He’s seen us through the leadership of 12 (and counting) pastors, 4 staff ministers, and countless councilmen and elders.   He’s blessed families and individuals and our church family as a whole.  Thank God for the blessing that Grace Church is and rejoice that here,  and in so many places like it, God’s name is glorified and the good news of salvation through Jesus is proclaimed!   God is good!!   Join us in celebrating “God’s Grace at Grace!”
