MARK RIGG,

MARK RIGG earned an S.T.M. at the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia in 2008 on the way to being ordained in January of this year. Ordination marked the end of an 18-year teaching career and the start of parish ministry. Mark serves Advent Lutheran Church outside Reading, PA, and is genuinely enjoying the new vocation. He and wife Sue have two children – Mary and Paul, ages 11 and 9. The highlight of his fall was the YDS Reunion and Convocation, and he writes, “This is my early pitch for the Class of 1991 and those clustered around it to start thinking about attending the 25th in 2016.”
