Dave Claassen

I'm a follower of Jesus Christ and seek to live my life to please Him and for His glory. I'm walking  this journey with my life's partner, Diann. We've been married since 1972 and have two grown children. Our daughter Julie and family live in Mexico where she is Director of Fishers of Men Mexico. Check the ministry out at fishersofmenmexico.org . Our son Dan and family live in the Tampa Florida area. Dan is on staff with Truth 78, a non-profit that disciples the next generations with Biblically based materials. Check the ministry out at truth78.org .

I pastored the Mayfair-Plymouth Congregational Church of Toledo, Ohio, since 1975, retiring in my 40th year of ministry with the church in 2014. Now my wife and I divide our time between Florida and Mexico to be close to our children and grandchildren.

I enjoy photography. Over five hundred of my photos are for sale at iStockphoto.com. I'm an amateur ventriloquist and occasionally entertain kids (and big kids too) with a conversation with my little buddy Ricky that usually has a moral and spiritual point to it. I also enjoy maintaining a decorative pond at both of our homes.
 
That's just a little bit about me. Thanks for visiting my web site. God bless you!
