Vicar Philip Frank

Philip was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) and comes from a long line of LCMS church workers and pastors.  Philip served in the U.S. Marine Corps between high school and college.  He graduated from Texas A&M University, where he met his wife.  Philip also served as a Firefighter/EMT.

​​​​​​

After a winding road, God led Philip and his family to Redeemer Lutheran in Alpine, Texas, where the congregation eventually called him to become their next pastor, with his training to be completed via the distance education Specific Ministry Pastor program at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri.  He accepted this call and soon after, accepted the call from the congregation of St. Paul Lutheran in Monahans as a dual-congregation sole pastor.

​

On Aug 23, 2024, Philip was officially assigned as a LCMS Vicar at the congregations of Redeemer in Alpine and St. Paul in Monahans by Concordia Seminary in St. Louis.  On Sep 8, 2024, Philip was installed as a SMP Vicar at both congregations by his mentor.

​

Philip greatly enjoys his work in and for the Kingdom of God, and he looks forward to whatever God has in store for his ministry.  The Lord always provides in great abundance.  Put your trust in Him.

Soli Deo Gloria!
