Rev. Alexander J. Lange was born in Illinois, but spent most of his childhood in the beautiful state of Oregon. He moved back to the midwest for his studies, receiving his Bachelors Degree from Concordia University Wisconsin and his Masters of Divinity from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. The Lord brought him back home when he received his call from Holy Cross Evangelical Lutheran Church in Albany, OR, where he serves to this day. Rev. Lange married his wife, Rachel, in 2013. The Lord has blessed them with two beautiful daughters and a son.
