Senior High

Hey y'all! I'm super excited to be back in Bethany again this summer, this time with Sr. High! I recently graduated from Clemson University this spring with a degree in Psychology. This coming fall I'll be getting married and moving to Austin, TX, where I plan to pursue a career in Human Resources. You can catch me soaking up the sun on the beach, listening to country music, or trying a new coffee shop. I'm so excited to see old friends and make some new ones this summer!

Senior High

My name is McCade Manning and I am a Junior at the University of Arkansas pursuing a major of Accounting. I am the youngest of 7 and have 11 nieces and nephews total. I love to create games to experience the kingdom of joy. I also love having deep conversations and digging deep in the hard parts of life. Super excited to hang out with the students this summer and see what the Lord has to offer this summer!

Junior High

I am a graduate of The University of Kansas and will begin my Doctor of Physical Therapy studies this Fall at St. Catherine's University. I've had the privilege of spending every summer in Bethany, including several years working as a lifeguard. I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve this summer and excited to connect with the Bethany youth and walk alongside them as they grow in their faith. I love anything outdoors-- sports, hiking, running, biking, camping-- you name it.

Junior High

My name is Emerson Thieman, and I will be a sophomore at Wheaton College this fall. I am majoring in Business Analytics as well as Biblical and Theological Studies. I grew up in Las Vegas Nevada but now call Seattle home. I love to hang out with friends, listen to music, be outside and talk about Jesus. This will be my first summer at Bethany, and I could not be more excited. I can’t wait to meet the students and see how the Lord will move in their lives!

K-5

Hello, I'm Aliza Nelson! I'm very excited for my third summer working with the Bethany youth! I am a rising senior at Wheaton College studying Biblical Studies, Theology, and Psychology. This summer, you will find me watercoloring, watching sunsets, and enjoying ice cream at the Well. I'm beyond excited for this summer!

K-5

Hi, my name is Anna Schlamann and this will be my second year as a K-5 YD. I will be a senior at Wheaton College in the fall, studying elementary education and actually, student teaching in 1st grade! I love hanging out with friends and family, relaxing at the beach, and trying new coffee shops. Looking forward to a great summer, Bethany!
