Michael Meyer Organist
Michael serves as organist of Wesley. He began leading worship at the pipe organ when he was 11, learning on a historic Hinners tracker-action pipe organ in the Congregational Church of Mendon, IL., and taught during his high school days by Wilfrid Nelson, organist at the then Episcopal Cathedral of St. John, in Quincy, IL.
Educated at the University of Illinois-Urbana and the University of Wisconsin-Madison as a historical geographer, Michael taught middle school for 7 years at St. John Sacred Heart School in Sherwood, WI and was organist/choirmaster for 15 years at Peace United Methodist Church, Kaukauna, WI (Stormy Kromer’s home!). With grown children in both Appleton and Madison, Michael has since 2015 served as the Executive Director of the Ironwood Chamber of Commerce, and you will find him at his Historic Ironwood Depot office during the week.
