Deacon Jon Leiseth serves Concordia College (Moorhead, MN) as its Minister for Vocation, Community and Service. His greatest hope in participating in this team is to contribute to deepening the existing relationships and visits between the college and its community and the AELC and its communities. Prior to his current call, he served the ELCA through its Young Adults in Global Mission program, living in South Africa for four years with his wife (Bishop Tessa Moon Leiseth) and their two children. Leiseth is also a farm kid, theatre artist, gardener and lover of trees.
