"Love like it’s your job."
- Meet Daniel Spaite -
Daniel is the newly elected DP of Central Cal
Pastor Daniel Spaite graduated from Point Loma Nazarene University in 2013 and is currently studying for a Masters of Ministry through the PLNU/NTS combined program. He and his wife Hannah (of three and a half years!) are the Youth Pastors at Visalia Naz in Visalia California. He coaches Varsity Golf and Soccer at local High Schools. His goal in youth ministry is to help teens learn how to think and process not what to think and process, especially as it pertains to God, Jesus, and existence. Daniel loves camps and events, sports, and preaching. He is excited to be part of the regional council and to help us do our very best in the name of Jesus!
A few fun facts about Daniel...
Q: Who is your Hero?
A: I almost went really serious and told you the incredible story of my parents and how they serve God so faithfully, regardless of the circumstances, and really inspire me as a human and as a follower of Jesus, but instead I'll just give the obvious answer: Will Ferrell.
Q: What are your Hobbies?
A: I love essentially every sport, backyard game, or less than two hour board game. I coach (and play!) Varsity Golf and Soccer. Dodgeball, Ultimate Frisbee, Spikeball… I pretty much tried to make it through college on Intramural Scholarships. 
Q: If I was an animal, what would I be and why?
A: I’d like to be a hawk to do the whole flying thing.
Q: If you had to describe yourself using three words, it would be?
A: Sarcastic, Preacher, Passionate
