In Memoriam — Rev. Dr. Dick Kaufmann

By Kathy Keller

March 14, 1946 - February 18, 2023

After a long illness our dear friend and colleague Dick Kaufmann died and was united with his Savior on February 18th, 2023.

Dick served as executive pastor at Redeemer Presbyterian Church from 1994 to 1999. He then moved to San Diego California where he planted a network of churches. 

Dick excelled in everything he attempted, from sports, a career in finance, managing the family vineyard, to leading Redeemer Presbyterian Church and planting the network of Harbor churches (PCA) in San Diego. Those who knew him well will remember him as a man of extraordinary prayer and humility.

We rejoice that he is in joy eternal with the God he served so faithfully and well.
