JEFF STUEVE
email Pastor Jeff
Before he became a United Methodist Licensed Local Pastor in 2017, Pastor Jeff was more commonly called "Dr. Stueve." He has a Ph.D. in Family Studies from the University of Illinois where he focused on studying parenting. After teaching at the University of New Mexico, Jeff felt called to teach about family in a Christian setting, eventually becoming a professor in Bethel College's Education Department and also teaching social science classes related to aging, marriage, friendship, and parenting. His messages seek to connect scripture to the challenges people face in their daily lives. Jeff stepped into ministry part-time for a year then in 2018 decided to move into full-time ministry; he was appointed to Trinity in July 2018. Even before becoming a pastor, Jeff and his wife Cathy have worked together in marriage ministry, small groups, and creating new worship experiences. Jeff and Cathy have two adult sons who live in Austin, TX.
If you stop by Trinity or give us a call, Lisa will likely be the one to talk with you. She will be able to answer most of your questions about Trinity UMC or point you toward someone who can! Lisa graduated from Hanover College with a B.A. degree in history. She and her husband, Mark, have two daughters, Angelina and Eleanor.
