Pastor Biedenbender
Michael Biedenbender graduated from Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary in 1985 and has devoted his ministry to proclaiming Christ and shepherding God’s people. Since 1989, he has served at Faith Lutheran Church in Mount Pleasant, Michigan.
Pastor B. married his wife, Rachel (Freier), in 1982. Together they have been blessed with three grown children, all married, and ten grandchildren who bring joy, energy, and endless stories to family life.

He is an avid outdoorsman who enjoys hunting, fishing, and spending time in God’s creation. He also loves building and working with his hands. By God’s grace, he constructed his own home on a lake in Harrison, Michigan—a reflection of both his craftsmanship and his appreciation for the beauty of the outdoors.
