Meet Kristen and Tessa, the creators behind All the Household! After finding each other at University Lutheran Chapel in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and discovering that they shared a variety of common interests, they especially connected over their shared enthusiasm for liturgical living. Together, they envisioned a one-stop shop for teaching and learning about Lutheran liturgical traditions, and so they decided to combine their passions and minds to create ATH. They are excited to join you on the journey of intentionally living out the liturgical year.
Meet the Creators
Kristen Einertson
Co-founder
Kristen is the wife of Christian (MDiv, working on a PhD in Doctrinal Theology) and mother of Theodore and Mary.
She hails from the Upper Midwest and is currently pursuing her PhD in Rhetoric at the University of Minnesota.
Kristen is a lifelong LCMS Lutheran, but it was only after she lived in Riga, Latvia, during her Fulbright fellowship in 2018-2019 that she became familiar with the many ancient Lutheran liturgical traditions that are still celebrated all over the world.
Besides her love for theology, Kristen enjoys hiking, playing violin and pipe organ, and traveling. She and her family live in Farmington, Minnesota.
Tessa Muench
Co-founder
Tessa is the wife of Josef, a Lutheran pastor, and the mother of Ambrose, James, and baby due September 2023.
She was born and raised as an LCMS Lutheran in Washington where her mom and brother still reside. While studying nursing at Concordia, Mequon, her love for homemaking and liturgical living blossomed.
Married life with Joe resulted in her starting a blog called the Homemaking Muench, where she and her audience increasingly became interested in questions of liturgical living.
Besides her love for theology, Tessa enjoys learning foreign languages, running, and baking. She and her family live in Twin Valley, Minnesota.
