Shan Townes

You are a consistent light to all of us at Grace Church in Forest Lake. Your stamina to continue to preach and minister unto us even though you are going through these tough health issues. Thank you for your openness to share your struggles. We can all relate to struggling to find the “why” in what God has called us to do, and the circumstances beyond our control to walk through difficult times. You continue to inspire. We are all praying for you, Deanna and the rest of the family. Lynda

Corey Kalinowski

Pastor Corey has been such an encouraging co-pastor in the past couple years with Pastor Chuck at New Life. Every week, he helps us to dive more deeply into God’s Word while applying it practically to our lives. Even with a congregation of nearly 900 people (give or take), he is still able to make personal phone calls to people, including myself, and meet us where we are at spiritually to pray for us. I look forward to my kids being able to grow up here and learn from Pastor Corey and all the NLC staff.

Mark Ostlie

Mark is an amazing leader/pastor at our church. He came to us first as an executive pastor in the fall of 2019. He is a husband, father to 4 beautiful daughters and also was going to seminary. He and his wife both changed careers when Mark heard the Lord calling him to ministry. (A very big step of faith!) When our Sr. pastor decided to retire during Covid times, Mark stepped up and navigated us through all the uncertainties of what that looked like and keep us strong….. We voted to hire him as Sr. pastor the next year (2021) and our congrecation has been blessed a million times over. Thank you Mark for all you do! We appreciate you so much at Cross of Glory!
