Tammy Klassen


Pastor of Family Ministries
Tammy was born in Southern California and raised there and in Brandon, Manitoba. She moved to the Cowichan Valley in 1988, where she and husband Rick raised their three children. Tammy has been involved in youth ministry for over 35 years and was ordained in 2012. She loves the “aha” moments of ministry when something clicks for a teenager and she also enjoys planning events that reach out into the community. Her favourite scripture is Philippians 2. Outside of work, Tammy loves spending time with her four grandkids, coaching basketball, traveling, and reading.
