Leader Ben Anderson (Director of Middle School Ministries)
Thank you for checking out the Merge/Confirmation section on the Morningside Lutheran Church website.
My name is Ben Anderson, and I have been the Middle School Director at Morningside Lutheran since November 2010. I graduated from Crown College with a Bachelor's in Youth Ministry. After this I went into full time ministry at a church in Minnesota as a Student Ministries Pastor for about three years. This was followed by a two year stint in Nebraska coaching baseball at Concordia University and working on my Master's in Family Life Ministry. The summer of 2010 offered me an opportunity working at Trinity Lutheran Camp in Montana, which was followed by a very clear calling from God to be a part of the staff here at Morningside Lutheran.
I couldn't be more excited to be a part of the church here in Sioux City and the Confirmation program that Morningside Lutheran offers.
Feel free to contact me in any form you desire.
