Pastor Sherri Otto

Pastor Sherri Otto and her husband Troy live in Shakopee, MN with their two dogs, Bella and Brutus and they will be adding a new puppy in August! They have three children, Emily, Grace and Trevor. Pastor Sherri grew up in the small town of Goodhue, MN, where much of her family still resides.

Her first career was at the Hennepin County jail, where she worked for 22 years before retiring. Following that, Pastor Sherri graduated from Luther Seminary in 2019 and she began her first call on March 1, 2020, as an associate Pastor. After 4 1/2 years, she discerned that it was time for a change and sought where God was leading her next.

And God led her to St. John’s!

In her free time, Pastor Sherri enjoys bowling, golf, darts, pool and music. She also loves spending time outdoors and around a good campfire.
