Executive Director of Security Duane Terpstra will be retiring after 33 years in higher education, including the past 14 with Davenport University in risk management and security roles. Before joining Davenport, Duane served Hope College for nearly 20 years. He will be leaving Davenport on June 28 and moving to Florida in August, where he and his wife will begin work on establishing a new church.
Duane was ordained as a Christian Reformed Church pastor in 2011 and has served as an Associate Pastor at Calvin Church in Holland. He currently is the Interim Pastor for a small church serving an immigrant Laotian population. The church he will be forming in Miramar, Fla., will be called The Source and will serve a culturally diverse community north of Miami.
Please thank Duane for his long service to DU and congratulate him on this exciting new chapter in his career!
