Our Leadership

Meet Pastor Westenberg

Born in 1966 to dairy farmers from Watertown, WI, Douglas Westenberg became a child of God through Holy Baptism at St. Mark’s Lutheran in Watertown. He received his Christian education there at St. Mark’s, then continued to Northwestern Preparatory School and College, graduating in 1988. He went on to Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary, graduating with a Master of Divinity in 1992.

His ministry included assisting the Dean of Men at NWC, pastor and principal at Immanuel Lutheran Church and School in Hadar, NE, associate pastor at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Juneau, WI, and pastor at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Marshfield, WI, where he also served as part-time chaplain to the hospital.

In 1994 he married Ann Sauer. The Lord blessed them with three children: Joel, Rachel, and Samuel. Pr. Westenberg accepted a divine call to St. Michael’s Lutheran Church in 2020. The Westenbergs are excited for this chapter of their ministry in Fountain City. They look forward to getting to know each of you and growing with you in God’s word and sacraments.
