Randy WelsandMy name is Randy Welsand. I was born and raised in Duluth, Minnesota, and spent most of my life there. I have been married to Maren Kay for 21 years and have three stepchildren, 7 grandchildren, and a son who is currently attending Wyoming Technical Institute In Laramie, Wyoming. I am employed by Grede Foundries in St. Cloud and have been a Foundryman for almost 20 years.
I have been a life-long member of the Episcopal Church, and my family and I have been members of St. John's Episcopal in St. Cloud for the last 6 years. I sing tenor in the choir and am an active member of the lay preachers' group. I am in my second year of EFM (Education for Ministry) and blessed to be part of the Spirit of the Heartland total ministry team.
Music has always been a big part of my life. I play guitar and have been actively involved with Cursillo music teams. My hobbies include woodworking, drum making, and primitive camping. I am also an avid target shooter, using antique black powder muskets, and a gunsmith. I look forward to making the journey together with you.
