Adelsen promoted to associate pastor at First Ev. Lutheran
The Rev. Peter Adelson, who used to be the assistant pastor at First Evangelical Lutheran Church in Glencoe, had his title lifted and is now the associate pastor at the church. He’s been with the church for just over two years now.
Adelsen considers himself a religious conservative — a person who relies primarily on scripture to derive Biblical interpretation. It frustrates him when religious intellectuals depart from scripture to ascribe their own interpretation, conveniently disincluding some things and keeping others.
Adelson’s appreciation for keeping in-tact the more conservative tradition of religious interpretation has been in place since he was young. He grew up in Kokomo, Ind., with his mom and dad, Marietta and Gary, and his sister Katie.
