Leadership

I have had the privilege of serving as the Lead Pastor at Bethel since 1995. My wife, Linda, and I have three adult children, two of whom are married. We also have been blessed with a grandson. I enjoy running, hiking and playing pickleball with my family. I am so grateful to God for the opportunity to share His Word with the Bethel Church family and to walk with them through the joys and sorrows of life. I am blessed to minister to people who love the Lord and have a desire to grow spiritually and to share God's love with others.
Colossians 1:28-29

I enjoy praying for and encouraging people in their walks with God. I have served among the Bethel church family as an Assistant Pastor since 2006. My wife, Joanne, and I have been blessed with four children. I pray that by God's grace Bethel is a church that stays close to God's Word, both listening and living well for His glory. 

 I have been serving the Lord among the Bethel church family as youth pastor since 2008 and have had a front row seat to see what God can do in a young person's life.  My wife, Jennifer, and I have 8 children and enjoy a wide range of family activities including camping, hiking, and working on projects together.  I also teach archery to BCS students and coach soccer.  I enjoy designing and building woodworking projects, working outside and hunting or fishing.   

I have had the joy of serving as worship leader since 2021. I love music and enjoy working with our talented and diverse team to help lead congregational worship. I enjoy spending time with my wife and son, watching college sports, and trying to keep up with my wife on the pickleball court. 

 I have been a member of Bethel since 2012 and was blessed to become the church secretary in November of 2019. My husband, Alan and I have two sons and two grandsons. We love to camp and travel with family and friends. I am an avid scrapbooker and I’m always planning the next big trip.

I have been the Children’s Director here at Bethel for a year and a half. Prior to this, I worked in children’s ministry as a volunteer for years. I have been married to Brad for 17 years and have 5 children. Four of my five children were given to us through adoption, and their struggles have helped me to become better equipped to help other children that I encounter. I am also a teacher at Bethel Christian School and have taught in public and private schools for a total of 17 years. I love to see the excitement in children learning God’s Word, growing closer to Him, and asking deep questions over things that their little minds are thinking about.
