News from the Southwestern Washington Synod

Greetings from your Southwestern Washington Synod -

We are very pleased to announce that at the recent Southwestern Washington Synod Assembly two members of Bethany were elected to positions of leadership within the Synod. Wendy Smitherman was elected Secretary of the Synod, and Brooklyn Shelton was elected to the Synod Council. Congratulations to both, and our thanks for their willingness to serve the larger church. 

Pastor Melissa Anderson Trust, a daughter of Bethany, continues to serve in the role of Associate Director of Evangelical Mission on the Synod team. Pastor Anderson Trust's focus is supporting new ministries across the synod in partnership with DEM Joey Ager. 

Bethany member Stefanie DeZarn serves as the Synod Administrator for the Southwestern Washington Synod.
