​​

​Lord Jesus Christ, the children's friend.
To each of them Your presence send;
Call them by name and keep them true
In loving faith, dear Lord, to You.

That caring parents, gracious Lord,
And faithful teachers find reward
In leading these, to whom You call, 
To find in Christ their all in all.

~LSB 866, st. 1 & 3

Mr. Paul Engelby - 5th & 6th Grades (Ext. 117)

I have greatly enjoyed teaching 4th grade for more than 20 years at the school I attended. Things have changed through the years, but God's love continues to shine at SPL. My wife, Chris, is a health and physical education teacher at Fairmont High School. We have twin daughters, Emily and Ashley, who also attended SPL. I enjoy all sports, hunting, fishing, and boating with my family.

Leslie Wokasch - 3rd & 4th Grades
​(Ext. 116)

I grew up just north of Northrop and attended SJL in Northrop from kindergarten through 8th grade.

I continued in Lutheran education by attending Martin Luther High School in Northrop, Bethany Lutheran College in Mankato, and finally receiving a teaching degree from Concordia in St. Paul.


My husband Reed attended SPL from kindergarten through 8th grade, and we have four children: Rhys, Rowan, Relena, and Riggs. I am thrilled to be a part of the SPL family!

Mrs. Joan Abel - 2nd Grade
​(Ext. 110)

I was raised on a dairy farm near Athens, Wisconsin so that makes me a Cheesehead (and proud of it!). In 1981 I graduated from Concordia College in St. Paul, MN and came to teach at St. Paul Lutheran Church and School. Doug and I have two sons, Thaddeus (Tadd) and Matthew (Matt). God has blessed me with many wonderful students and parents, and I have thoroughly enjoyed my teaching career. I pray that He will continue to use me to share His Word with young people!

​1 Peter 4:10 - As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies -- in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Ecclesiastes 3:9-11 - What gain has the worker from his toil? I have seen the business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with. He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live; also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil -- this is God's gift to man.

The Young Investors Club
volunteer is Mrs. Elaine Lieder.
It is held every Thursday
morning.

I grew up in a family which practiced fiscal responsibility and Biblical stewardship. For three generations our family has taught and practiced the 10-10-80 principal. Ten percent of our income goes back to the Lord as a tithe, ten percent goes to savings for future needs and major expenses, and the remaining eighty percent takes care of our day-to-day needs. I see the Young Investors Club as a wonderful opportunity for students to practice both stewardship and responsible savings habits, since LCEF uses the funds on loan for ministry purposes.
