Greetings!  My name is Pastor Jay Denne, and I am the Interim Pastor of Hope Lutheran Church.  I have lived in Sioux City for the last 26 years, where I worked at my former day job as an attorney for many years.  I was ordained in 2010, and I have served several different congregations, as well in a variety of roles in the Western Iowa Synod.  My wife, Jennifer, has a teaching background in special education and currently works for the Iowa Department of Education and we have three children, Jason, Jonathan, and Jami.  

You can email me if you have any questions about Hope and our ministries here.  Also, I love to meet with people over lunch, coffee, or at the church to get to know people's stories, so feel free to contact me to set up a time to get together.    

May the peace of the risen Christ be you! 

Pastor Jay Denne
