Toward the end of summer, both First Lutheran Church and St. Stephen’s Lutheran Church in Marshall saw some new faces in their ministries. Jackie Rostad is an intern pastor at First Lutheran, which means she is still a student, but is able to do a few things pastors do, such as visitations. Travis and Brandy Gerjets serve as interim pastors at St. Stephen’s, where the two are coming in when a pastor leaves or the church is going through a transition. And in an interesting coincidence, Rostad and Brandy Gerjets both came from the same home church in Minot, N.D. Yet the three came to the ministry on different paths. Rostad was working overnights in the Fargo-Moorhead area processing legal documents when she paid close attention to her pastor’s sermon. “He gave a sermon on Pentecost Sunday on what direction God is blowing you,” Rostad said. When she heard that sermon, Rostad had a realization, that she wanted to be a pastor.
