Nate Weller
Lead pastor/elder
I grew up in the Midwest (Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota). In 2010, I earned a degree in engineering from North Dakota State University and worked for five years as a Manufacturing Engineer. During that time, God began to call me into full-time ministry. I eventually submitted to God’s call on my life by pursuing a Master of Divinity degree from Bethlehem College & Seminary in Minneapolis, MN. During seminary, I worked part-time as a youth pastor at a church in the Minneapolis area. In May of 2019, I graduated from seminary and moved to Portland, OR to be a youth and associate pastor there for two years. In the Fall of 2021, I accepted a call from Living Stone Church to join their team of elders as the lead teaching elder. I am married to an incredible wife and mother, Abby. And we have four boys: Henrik, Elias, Oliver, and Theodore. We love the Northwest outdoors. As a family, we enjoy hiking, camping, swimming, and exploring Washington. We also love to cook and host people at our home.

I have lived most of my life in Washington. My wife, Orlanna and I enjoy our retirement from Washington State Parks (me) and the Post Office (Orlanna.) I have served Living Stone and the former church, Little Stone, since the mid 1990’s and have worked as an elder, deacon, board chair, greeter, and handyman. I love and care about the people who make up this church.

clarissa steiner
student ministry deaconess
I was born and raised in Chelan and grew up attending Living Stone Church with my family. After searching for a church home when my husband, John and I were married, new friends and youth ministry brought us "home" to LSC. You can usually find me spending time with family, chasing our busy nephews and nieces around or leading Young Life.

john steiner
student ministry deacon
I grew up in Wenatchee and moved to Chelan and married my amazing wife, Clarissa in 2006. In 2013, we were introduced to Young Life and started attending LSC with fellow leaders and friends and quickly knew it was where God was calling us. I enjoy spending time with our family, umpiring and officiating youth sports, leading Young Life and yelling for/at the Seahawks.

Luke Bradley
Missions Deacon
I was born and raised in Illinois. In 2008 I moved to Washington and married my wife Tabetha, a General Surgeon. From 2013 to 2014 we lived in Niger West Africa serving at a christian hospital on the edge of the Sahara desert. In 2015 we began attending Living Stone Church and started a family that now includes three children, Juliet, Timber, and Eowyn. We have since served at several christian hospitals throughout Africa. I joined the missions and outreach committee in 2018 and I get to share the exciting work and ministries with the congregation and be involved in praying for and participating in ministries around the world.
