Rev. Dr. Matthias Benfey

Associate Pastor

Since becoming a member of St. Mark’s some years ago, Matthias decided to pursue ordination through Concordia Lutheran Seminary.  He was ordained in 2017.  He has many years of theological studies under his belt, and holds a doctorate degree.  Now retired, Matthias worked in the banking industry.  Often mistaken for a mild-mannered banker, Matthias’ pursuits include riding his motorcycle and flying airplanes (and sometimes jumping out of them).  Matthias and his wife Maureen have four children, all now of adult age.
