Homecoming Tailgate and Alumni Celebration

Recent Event: September 13, 2024

Friday, September 13, 2024, the Annual Homecoming Tailgate Party took place prior to the football game against the Mustangs from Concordia Omaha. Over 350 of our Warrior family members and friends enjoyed a meal, provided by HyVee. As part of this annual event, we honored an alum.

Jonathan Jank, a 2004 graduate, credits his time at Lincoln Lutheran for instilling in him the desire to be a servant leader. Jonathan recalls his years at LL as a time full of opportunities to grow in relationships with Jesus, faculty, staff and students who became lifelong friends. He credits his teachers for challenging him personally and spiritually. At LL he participated in student council, various sports, multiple theater productions and many music groups which allowed him to travel to several states and qualify three years for All State Band.

Jonathan has this advice for current Warriors: Success moves at the speed of trust. There is no substitute for building authentic and trustworthy relationships both personally and professionally. With that said, don't worry about climbing the corporate ladder. Be faithful in your everyday callings and trust God to provide for your daily personal and professional needs (Matthew 6:25-34)
