Chp. Eggers was part of history - U.S. Army Chaplain in WWII and just after when he was called upon to minister to Nazi war criminals as they awaited trial in Nuremberg, Germany.
As a chaplain for LMSN, Chp. Eggers served as the Protestant Chaplain for Providence Hospital in Seattle, visited patients at seven other local hospitals, conducted visitations and services at care centers, and served as a chaplain for the King County jail.
We express our appreciation to Mr. Gary Beard of Pilgrim Lutheran Church for his work in composing this bio and for allowing us to use it. Thank you!

Thank you to all who braved the storms on October 15, 2016, to attend LMSN's second annual Oktoberfest!
We had a blast!
Musicians from All Saints Lutheran Church, Epiphany Lutheran Church, King of Kings Lutheran Church, Pilgrim Lutheran Church, and Redeemer Lutheran Church took part in the Music Festival portion of our gathering in Pilgrim's Sanctuary. (Thank you to all!)
We had fabulous food - bratwurst courtesy of Fischer Meats in Issaquah, WA. The bratwurst was smoked by our own Executive Director, Don Sundene, on a smoker supplied by Dennis Polinder of Pilgrim. During dinner, we had Oktoberfest favorites from Mach One Jazz Orchestra - phenomenal! Thank you to all!
It also served as the Kickoff for Northwest Reformation 500! Visit www.nwreformation500.com for more information.
