Caroline Ness introduced Pastor Matt Bersagel from the Crown of Glory Lutheran Church in Chaska. After providing a brief history of the church and his time as its pastor, Matt shared the plans for the 2015 expansion of the church building at 1141 Cardinal St. He shared the church’s mission and the building campaign – “Opening Hearts, Hands, Home.” The improvements will be accomplished with the support of Thrivent Financial Services and a crew from Mission Builders who supervise local volunteers providing some of the construction labor. The Mission Builders work on two projects each year – one in winter and another during the summer, so the Chaska project should be finished before the cold weather hits our area next winter. Matt invited any interested Rotarians to participate in this project, which will double the activity space and provide for better community support for Chaska residents. He also described some of the church programs, activities and role in our community.
Matt can be contacted at 952-448-3230, and through the church’s web page at www.crownofglory.org
