Life

Lassen was born as the son of the pastor of Sandhofen, Jakobschlusser. He began his higher education at the grammar school in Heilbronn in 1878 , where he obtained the university entrance qualification at the age of 17 . He completed his theology studies in eight semesters at the universities of Heidelberg , Erlangen , Berlin and Bonn . At the age of 21 he was already vicar and started his first job with his father in Sandhofen. Further stations were Mannheim , Schollbrunn , Eberbach , Villingen , Furtwangen and Freiburg im Breisgau . In 1892 he was elected pastor in Gallenweiler , from where he looked after the evangelicals living in the diaspora in fifteen predominantly rural communities. In the same year he married Emma Luise Behagel. From 1899 to 1910 he was pastor in Auggen , from 1910 to his retirement in 1926 pastor in Weil am Rhein.

From 1911 to 1926 he published the Evangelical Community Messenger every quarter , in which, as a contemporary witness, he also described the effects of the First World War on the people in Weil am Rhein. These records formed the basis for an exhibition in Weil am Rhein in 2014/2015 to commemorate the beginning of the First World War 100 years ago.

His social activity during the war and post-war years was described in the book Liebessieg in Kriegsnot published in 1939 .
