Zac Klassen

Zac has a twin-passion for both Pastoral Ministry and Academics. Having grown up in Manitoba, where he also pastored for 2 1/2 years, Zac came with his family to Ontario in 2013 to pursue his Masters of Theological Studies at Conrad Grebel University College. Following his MTS, he pursued his PhD at McMaster University, and successfully defended his dissertation in 2020. Zac was called to pastor at Bloomingdale Mennonite beginning August 2021. He was formally installed as pastor on January 16th, 2022.

On June 1st, 2025, Zac was ordained as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in Mennonite Church Eastern Canada. The ordination took place at Bloomingdale Mennonite Church and the service was led by Marilyn Rudy-Froese, Leadership Minister at Mennonite Church Eastern Canada.

Regarding his time at Bloomingdale, Zac notes:

"I couldn't have imagined a more welcoming, gracious, engaged, and encouraging community than Bloomingdale MC. In my short tenure as pastor at BMC, I have been inspired and energized by the many opportunities our church affords us to pursue our common goal of following Jesus together."
