Dan Whitmarsh
A Northwest native, Dan has been at Lakebay since 2006. Previously, he served churches in California and Oregon. Apart from his pastoral work, he writes a column in the Key Peninsula News, plays trumpet in a local swing band, and has a passion for fly-fishing in our local waters. His love for the people here means he can often be found out and about in the community connecting with others.
Dan has a B.A. in Music from Azusa Pacific University, an M. Div. from Fresno Pacific Biblical Seminary, and is currently enrolled in the MA in Counseling Psychology Program at the Seattle School of Theology and Psychology. He was ordained in the Evangelical Covenant Church in 2005.
He is married to the love of his life Sarah, and they have four soon-to-be young adults who fill their life with joy, delight, and no small amount of chaos
