Hello Bethany Covenant Church!

I am excited to be here with you and begin ministry as your Associate Pastor of Children & Families! My first week is in full swing and I have been getting to know the staff, catching up with things VBS related, as well as some future ministry plans. In all, I feel very welcomed and affirmed to be here serving you. I look forward to getting to know you, as well as being known by you.

As a family, we are settling in and unpacking, as well as getting introduced to the area. Annie and Miles have gotten to explore a bit more than myself, as I have been in the office all week. However, after returning from their trip to Bellingham this morning and seeing the Bellingham Bay, Miles emphatically told me that I need to go there with him and even live there! We think he’s going to like it here!

As we continue to settle in, I would like to enlist some help from the Bethany Kids families. I would love to take advantage of the time we have before the Fall ministry year gets rolling and connect with as many families as I can. I would also love to get to know places that I can take Miles to play and explore.

If you would like to help me by taking both Miles and myself, and possibly Annie too, to one of your or your kids favorite parks or playgrounds, I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to be with and learn from you. If parks and playgrounds are not your thing, I would also enjoy getting together for coffee and a conversation as well. You can contact me either at the church office, or by email at dan@bccmv.org.

Again, I am both grateful and excited to be serving you!

Grace and Peace,
Pastor Dan
