Beverly Baseman | Director of Christian Education

Bethel has been my church for over forty years. My children have grown up here. When we attended as a family all those years it was a joy to see the Spirit at work in so many different places. Moving from various volunteer opportunities, the joy continues now being a staff member. The main goal of our Christian Education Team at Bethel is to continue to provide new times of learning and experiencing the old and faithful and exciting story of Jesus’ unending love for everyone. It is great to be a part of that.

Hi! My name is Lori Knutson, Bethel’s Youth Director for 3rd-8th grade. Bethel has been my home church for over 30 years. Even after being away for a few, returning here was like I never even left.

Bethel is a very caring, giving and welcoming church.

Chad, my husband of 10 years, and I have 3 daughters and a son- Jenni, Kaileigh, Sydney and Mason.

I am excited to be taking this faith journey with the youth of Bethel. I am blessed to be a part of this wonderful congregation!!!

I am Becky Fordyce the Sr. Hi. Youth Director here at Bethel. My time here at Bethel has been an experience full of growth. This has been a warm and loving congregation where there is always room for a true relationship with Jesus Christ.

My husband Joe and I have three grown children and two grandchildren-Amanda and Matt Fusari, Rachel and Russell, Matt and Ashley Fordyce and Isaac Fordyce.

Taking on this role within such an enthusiastic congregation is a blessing in my own faith journey.
