Pastor Chase Greenhagen
Pastor Chase Greenhagen serves as Associate Pastor at Crown of Life Lutheran Church in San Antonio, Texas. Prior to serving in ministry, he graduated from Valparaiso University with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering and a minor in Classics. He worked for four years as a software developer, first in St. Louis, Missouri and then in Madison, Wisconsin before entering the seminary in 2021. He served as a vicar at Faith Lutheran Church in Green Bay, Wisconsin from 2023-2024. In 2025 he graduated from Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and he was called directly from the seminary to serve at Crown of Life Lutheran Church. As part of his pastoral duties, he is forming a campus ministry program, known as LCMS-U, for college students in the San Antonio area.
He grew up in rural Minnesota and is the youngest in a family of five. His parents, Paul and Cherie, are retired and enjoy spending their time with their sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren. His oldest brother, Tyler, lives in Minnesota and works in real estate with their father. Pastor Greenhagen’s identical twin, Jesse, is also an ordained pastor in the Lutheran Church and serves at Zion Lutheran Church and Christ the King Lutheran Chapel in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. Both Tyler and Jesse have families, making Pastor Greenhagen a happy uncle.
In addition to spoiling his niece and nephew, he enjoys reading and being active. He likes to run on the Salado Creek Trail, hike, swim, and discuss theology.
