The Rev. Tim Chesser retires from First Baptist Church, Delaware on May 18, 2014. American Baptist Churches of Ohio wishes to thank Rev. Chesser for his service and wish him and his wife Kathy a wonderful retirement!
Tim served in churches in Indiana, Wisconsin, and Oklahoma before coming to First Baptist, Delaware in 2001. While in Delaware he performed sixteen weddings (including both his sons), thirty-two funerals, and ushered three people through ordinations (Karen Stoner, Robert Russell and Sam Chesser). He served on the Pastoral Relations Committee and Scholarship Committee of the Marion Association of American Baptist Churches, and has been active in the Delaware Ministerial Association.
He and Kathryn have two sons — Donald, who lives in Delaware, and Sam who lives in Norwich, Connecticut. The Chessers plan to remain in Delaware during retirement. Again, ABC Ohio wishes the Chesser family the best in retirement! May God's blessings fall abundantly for a true servant of God!
