Peter Berauer

Pastor Peter Berauer was born and raised in Mt. Prospect Illinois, just minutes from Living Christ.  In 2014 he married his amazing wife Tiffany.  Pastor Peter came to Living Christ after graduating from Concordia Seminary, St. Louis in May 2016.  Two words give shape and form to his life:  Loved and Sent.   He believes he is Loved by God (His identity) and is Sent into the world (His purpose), as are all Christians.  Pastor Peter would love to get to know you and share with you the hope he has in Jesus.  He loves to talk about Jesus with both Christians who have known God their entire lives, as well as those who have no idea what God is all about.  In his free time, Pastor Peter drinks coffee, runs, rides bikes, and reads good books.

Alex Falls grew up in a musical family living in Batavia, Illinois where he began piano lessons in first grade, played cello with his school orchestra, and sang in his first church choir as a high school student. Today, Alex has a Bachelor of Music degree in Commercial Music (voice) from Millikin University, and a Master of Music degree in Jazz Studies (piano) from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. He plays over a dozen instruments, which include the guitar, electric bass, ukulele, and percussion, and loves learning new instruments and styles of music. Alex has been a church musician for over ten years and in 2017 returned to the Chicago area to answer the Lord’s call to the career of Director of Music Ministry.  He is delighted to join the staff of Living Christ Lutheran Church as part of the faith community and looks forward to working with the congregation in bringing the Lord’s message of love through music.
