Jude Lins
Senior High
Hey again, everybody! My name is Jude Lins, and I am very glad to be returning to Bethany this summer. Even before the last season ended in July, I felt pretty confident that the Lord was inviting me to return this year—and I continue to be really excited about picking up where we left off! During the off months, I’m a student at Asbury University, where I study Bible Theology and the Biblical Languages, and my hobbies mainly revolve around my loves of reading, songwriting and trying new things. I’ll see you all soon!

Anneliese Lockner
Senior High
My name is Anneliese and I am so happy to be back in Bethany serving again this summer! I am currently teaching First Grade in Musanze, Rwanda but am so blessed to call Bethany home. I look forward to beach walks, sunsets, and spending so much time with the Bethany teens and the rest of the community.

Andrew Lever
Junior High
Howdy! My name is Andrew Lever, though you might hear me called "Bubby", and I'm from all the way down in Arkansas. I am a sophomore at the University of Arkansas studying Biochemistry for Pre-Med. I love all things outdoors, hanging out with my friends, and all things music. I currently lead a youth group of seventh grade boys, play piano for my church, and work for my dad's renovation business. I am so excited to spend this summer with the Bethany Beach youth and see what the Lord has in store for this summer!

Emma Voelkert
Junior High
Hey y’all! My name is Emma Voelkert and I’m so pumped to be with the junior high youth again this summer! I will be a senior in the fall at Clemson University, studying Psychology with minors in Human Resource Management and Nonprofit Leadership. Coffee, volleyball, and the sunshine are my favorite things, so in my free time, you can find me either at a coffee shop or at the beach!
I can’t wait to see old friends and some new faces this summer!

Aliza Nelson
K-5
Hi, I'm Aliza Nelson, and I'm beyond excited to get to work with the Bethany youth again this summer! A little about me is that I am an upcoming junior at Wheaton College studying Biblical Studies and Theology. In my free time, you will find me doing arts and crafts, watching sunsets, hanging with friends, or buying gummy sharks from the Well candy counter.
I can't wait to see what the Lord does this summer in our youth program!

Anna Schlamann
K-5
Hi, my name is Anna Schlamann! You may recognize me from working at the Well the past two summers, but I’m so excited to spend more time with the youth this summer! A little bit about me: I will be a junior in the fall at Wheaton College studying Elementary Education. As you may know, I love working with kids, but some of my other hobbies include going to the beach and watching the sunset, going to local coffee shops with friends, and ending the night watching a good movie with family.
