Gethsemane Lutheran Church Council and the Call Committee are pleased to announce that our call to Rev. Colton LaMay, who is currently serving in Sarnia, Ontario, has been accepted. His Installation at GLC will be on March 8th, more details to follow.

Rev. LaMay was born in Petoskey, Michigan, but soon moved to Missouri. After moving to Florida, He served as a Director of Music at a congregation starting in 2007. He earned a Masters in Education, specializing in Music Education and Pre-School Education. He was called into ministry via the Special Ministry Program (SMP) in 2018 and finished in June of 2022. He occasionally filled in for his senior pastor, who had become ill. Eventually, though, his family desired a move to Canada and was called by Redeemer Lutheran in Sarnia in 2022.

Rev. LaMay is married to his wife Sadie, and they have two boys, Jude (16) and Joshua (6). They are an incredible and faithful family and we are very blessed to have them join our GLC family. We know that God will do great things through them! We look forward to supporting them in any way possible.

Here is the acceptance letter sent to our congregation:
