Pastor Kristin Neitzel Woelk
Many people in Pastor Kristin Woelk's life recognized her call to ministry long before she did. Growing up in southern Wisconsin as a selfproclaimed "church nerd," she has always loved to be at church - whether it was for worship, Sunday School, youth group, Bible studies, or a good ol' fashioned church potluck - but she never dreamed she'd be a pastor. She graduated from Luther College in Decorah, IA with a degree in accounting as she continued to try to figure out what she really wanted to do with her life.
Kristin developed a love for outdoor ministries during her years as a camper and then as a staff member at Lutherdale Bible Camp (Elkhorn, WI). She was drawn to positions in various ministry settings after college, including working full time at Lutherdale, youth directing at her home church (St. Paul Lutheran, Beloit, WI), serving as the office manager at Hope Lutheran, Cottage Grove, WI, and then as part of the staff of the SouthCentral Synod of Wisconsin. In 2003, she finally answered the call to ordained ministry and began her studies at Wartburg Theological Seminary (Dubuque, IA), which included year of internship in Longmont, Colorado at First Lutheran Church.
After serving Reformation Lutheran Church in Wichita, KS, for the first 12 years of her ordained ministry, Pastor Kristin is excited to have returned home to Wisconsin to serve alongside the good people of All Saints.
Kristin and her husband, Steven, enjoy outdoor activities – and have recently invested in bikes and kayaks! While they are excited to get out and use both, they recognize that the Madison area terrain may be a little more challenging than the flat Kansas plains on a bike! Kristin also loves to be crafty and to bake – just ask her about her Christmas Cookie Baking Extravaganza with her mom. She’s also a big fan of smiley faces – which you will likely notice if you stop by her office. Stop by any time!
