Rev. Neil Jasperse of Classis Grand Rapids North and his brother Dirk Jasperse, an elder from Classis California South, served together at Synod 2009. “It was a treat,” said Neil, age 51. “We usually only see each other once or twice a year or less.” Dirk, 54, had to leave synod early due to a death in the family.
