Peace Lutheran Church Leadership

Peace Lutheran Church is blessed to have a leadership team who are truly dedicated to Christ and accomplishing His will. Following are brief bio's of our leadership team and their qualifications for ministry.

Beth Krolak

Pastor

Pastor Beth Krolak was called to serve as Peace Lutheran Church's Pastor on June 1, 2018. Prior to that, she served the congregations of Grand Meadow Lutheran Church, Grand Meadow MN, and Central Lutheran and Cedar Valley Lutheran Churches, Winona MN. 

Pastor Beth enjoys leading a church like Peace Lutheran Church where the good news of Jesus Christ is embraced and lived, with members who care about the needs of those around them and who want to connect others to the body of Christ. She appreciates Peace Lutheran's willingness to try new ministries and ways of worshiping. Pastor Beth spends time each day in prayer, reflection and Bible study.

She graduated from the University of Vermont in 1983 with a degree in Education. She has been a teacher, an education coordinator at Good Earth Village, the director of Rainbow School, and she homeschooled her children for 11 years. In 2012 she graduated from Luther Seminary with a Master of Divinity degree. 

Pastor Beth and her husband, Dave, have been happily married for 40 years. They have three grown children and two grandchildren. They love living in Eyota, just a bike ride away from their grandchildren! Pastor Beth enjoys gardening, reading, hiking and walking, and spending time outdoors. She thinks a perfect day would  include good coffee, sunshine, and a walk along an ocean beach with her family.
