He supplied several pulpits before his ordination in Horicon,Wisconsin in 1862, where he began his pastoral work. During the Civil War he served with the US Christian Commission in Lower Mississippi. He has served as pastor in Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio, Minnesota, and Iowa. He received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (1891) and that of Doctor of Divinity (1894) from Omaha University in Omaha, Nebraska.
