Pr. Ulmer was installed as the associate pastor of Faith Lutheran Church in Plano serving the congregation in Wylie on December 28, 2014. Previously Pr. Ulmer served as the pastor of Shepherd of Peace Lutheran Church in Braidwood, IL for five years.
Pr. Ulmer has been blessed to be married to Alissa since 2001 and together they have enjoyed raising their daughter, Adeline and son, John.
Pr. Ulmer, one of 5 siblings, had the great joy of being adopted into a Lutheran home where Scripture was regularly heard and theology was quite often the topic of conversation. Through the years of faithful teaching from his parents, family, and pastors, Pr. Ulmer grew to have an ever-greater love and appreciation for the faithfulness of the Lutheran confession and the great comfort it offers to sinners. Pastor holds a bachelor’s degree in political science and a master’s degree in theology with an emphasis in systematic theology.
Pr. Ulmer considers it a great joy to preach and teach the Word of God, to provide counsel and comfort in time of need, and to give and receive the gifts of Christ with the saints here at Faith Lutheran Church in Wylie.
