I was raised in Montgomery, PA and graduated from Montgomery Area High School before coming to Bloomsburg University. I received a B.A. in English and went on to work in multiple fields before surrendering to my call to ministry. I attended seminary at Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C.
I served as a certified lay speaker/minister until becoming a local licensed pastor in 2013. I have served at Jersey Shore First UMC, Jersey Shore, Calvary UMC in Lawrenceville and now I am appointed to be here with you in Lightstreet.
My husband, Terry and I have been married for 28 years and we have 3 children and 3 grandchildren. In my down time, I enjoy rag quilting, gardening and college football.
Church office hours are flexible. Please contact the church office at your convenience as need arise. For immediate concerns, obtain Beth's cell phone number from the church voicemail.
Beth is excited to serve the people of LUMC. This has been her church home for 33 years.
