A graduate of St. Olaf College and Yale Divinity School, Schattauer was deeply formed by campus ministry at both institutions, worshiping and leading in the St. Olaf Student Congregation and working in the Yale University Chaplain’s Office and the University Church in Yale. He currently serves as the Chair of the Board of Directors of Lutheran Campus Ministry – Twin Cities.
