Pastor - Rev. Emily Tveite

Rev. Emily Tveite has served as the Campus Pastor and Director at Lutheran Campus Ministry in Madison, Wisconsin since 2015. She was born and raised in Austin, Texas and earned her undergraduate degree at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. She completed her seminary studies at the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago. She served as intern at St. Andrew Lutheran Church in Vancouver, Washington. The experience of working in the Pacific Northwest inspired her passion for journeying with those new to the Christian faith and equipped her for working in a climate of declining religiosity. Pastor Emily is married to Paul, a software engineer at Google. They are parents to three-year-old Eleanor and almost-one-year-old Vera. The Tveites enjoy cooking and baking, reading, playing board games, and going for family bike rides.
