They married and have been involved in youth ministry for 12 years and now pastoral ministry. They have lived in Arizona, Iowa and Illinois. Reid is the Discipleship Pastor at Our Savior’s, and Christine is a stay-at-home mother of their 3 daughters, Elsa (10), Josephine (7), and Greta (6). She also plans worship and is a substitute teacher at Rockford Lutheran Academy. With their daughters, Christine and Reid love doing music together. They produced a CD and are in the process of recording a second CD. Reid and Christine write original songs. He is also writing a musical, a novel, and 2 children’s chapter books.
