Pastor Jon Gallatin

Hello, this is Pastor Jon Gallatin. I grew up in Moorhead, MN (Yes I am a Viking fan). Before going to seminary I taught Physical Education and Health in Lancaster, MN as well as coaching basketball and football. I went to seminary at Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN where I met my wife Tabitha. We have two children Morgan and Marcus that keep us busy when not at church. Before being called to Gloria Dei I served at Saint Andrew Lutheran Church in Wausau, WI. I look forward to working with the people of Gloria Dei in spreading the good news of our Lord.

Sometimes I am referred to as "the Answer Lady" at Gloria Dei—I have been our secretary since 1983. Please contact me if you have any questions and I will try to answer them or direct you to someone who can help.

Pastor Tabitha Gallatin

I grew up in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and spent my childhood years interested in sports, friends, school, and activities at my church home, Grace Lutheran Church.

A graduate of Ashwaubenon High School, I continued my education at the University of Wisconsin – Green Bay, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Human Development with minors in Chemistry and Psychology.

I attended Luther Seminary, St. Paul, Minnesota, and obtained a Master of Divinity degree in 2004.

My husband, Pastor Jon Gallatin and have been blessed with two children, Morgan and Marcus. In my spare time, I enjoy sports, reading, spending time with family and friends, and having fun with our children.

Before being called to serve Gloria Dei, I joyfully served as Pastor of Bethany/St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, in Aniwa, Wisconsin.

We are grateful to be in the Neenah community and to be here at Gloria Dei Lutheran church. We look forward to the opportunity to carry God’s grace to you!

Jill Kruger, Sunday School and Junior Choir Director

I'm Jill Kruger and I direct the Sunday School Singers at Gloria Dei. All children in the Sunday School Program, from age 3 through 6th grade participate in singing with me before Sunday School classes, which starts at 9:10 AM. We sing once a month during our worship services. I feel that music is one way for children to have fun at church. I believe it is important for children to be a part of their church by participating in the worship service. Singing is a wonderful way to praise the Lord!
