Staff update:

We’re excited to announce that Matt Sammons is joining the Bethel staff team this week as our new Operations Director!

Matt will spend the next few months working closely with Kent, who is preparing to retire in May 2025, to ensure a smooth and well-supported transition.

Matt brings valuable experience to this role. A former Marine with two tours in Iraq, he has spent the past five years as the Executive Director of the Columbia Basin Veterans Center. His leadership experience and dedication will be a great asset to our team.

We’re excited to have Matt on board—please join us in welcoming him to Bethel!
