Rev. Michael S. Hageman was born in Lyons, Kansas to Bruce and Teresa Hageman on December 9, 1977. A native of Abilene, Kan., Rev. Hageman met his future wife, Shanna of Manhattan, at a debate tournament in Hutchinson Kansas and eventually was married to her on January 1, 2000. Since that time Rev. Hageman and Shanna have been blessed with two talented girls, Selah and Kiera Hageman.

Rev. Hageman graduated from Concordia University, Neb. in 2000; and Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, Mo, in 2004. Rev. Hageman was called to the inner city of Cleveland, Ohio, to Zion Ev. Lutheran Church in 2004 and served the Lord in Cleveland by serving on multiple boards throughout the Lutheran community in the city and concentrating on outreach to differing multicultural groups in Cleveland. Rev. Hageman was then called to serve the Lord in a changing community at Trinity Lutheran Church and School of Rockledge, Florida in the fall of 2009. He was heavily involved with the school ministry at Trinity and also served a long-term vacancy at Grace Lutheran Church and Pre-school, Merritt Island, Florida by connecting families to the life of the church.

Rev. Hageman enjoys the outdoors and participating in sporting events. He has been known to work with his hands and enjoys to have a good time with those around him. He and his family are excited to serve the Lord and the people in the community of Lakin and Immanuel Lutheran Church.

Rev. Magdiel Fajardo.  Called to serve God's church, it is my joy to endure this calling knowing that in the end God wants the best for His people. And wherever He calls me, I trust his purpose that in the preaching and teaching of His word, it will bear fruit according to His good and gracious will. Keeping in mind that I am at the same time sinner and saint. I seek to follow His calling to make disciples, baptize, teach, administer the sacraments, and proclaim the good news of Christ Jesus. My wife Megan, and my children are a great part of God's blessings, and I seek to provide, protect, and care for them. Guiding them in the love of Christ. I thank God for providing new opportunities to strengthen my faith and my vocation as Husband, Father, Pastor.
