Life

Friedrich Peter Valentiner came from an old academic family in Schleswig-Holstein. He was a son of the pastor and consistorial councilor Valentin Adrian Valentiner (1758-1835) and his second wife Christine Sophie Bauert and brother of the doctor Georg Theodor Valentiner . Friedrich Wilhelm Valentiner and Christian August Valentiner were his cousins .

From 1838 he studied Protestant theology at the University of Kiel . In 1843 he passed the theological exam. At the end of 1848 he was appointed deacon to St. Laurentius in Tönning . Because of his anti-Danish stance during the Schleswig-Holstein uprising , he was dismissed by the Danish government on November 8, 1850, as were his cousins.

In 1851 the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm IV appointed him consulate preacher at the consulate in Jerusalem . He left on December 1, 1851 and arrived in Jerusalem on January 11, 1852. Valentiner thus became the first pastor of the small but steadily growing German Protestant congregation in Jerusalem , which celebrated its service in the Christ Church , built in 1849 , the bishop's church of the Anglo-Prussian diocese of Jerusalem .

After the German-Danish War and thus the end of Danish rule in Schleswig-Holstein, he returned in 1866 and became a pastor in Pronstorf. In 1869 he was appointed preacher at the Preetz monastery .

He was married to Anna Charlotta, geb. van Laer (born August 12, 1822 in Halk ; † June 16, 1903) son of the couple was the later Eutin superintendent and Ratzeburg regional superintendent Theodor Valentiner (1854–1913).
