Sheri Becraft has served as the Director of Children’s Ministry since 2018. Sheri’s family attended Bethany Community Church’s first service in 1986, and she grew up in its Children and Youth Ministries. As a young teen, Sheri was known to some as the “Bethany babysitter” and had two planners: one to keep track of her schoolwork and another for her many babysitting jobs. As an adult, Sheri has served in both the Nursery and Preschool classrooms, and worked closely with the former Children’s Ministry Director until she stepped into the staff position herself. Sheri holds a degree in Early Childhood Development and is the owner and operator of a licensed family childcare. She has welcomed families into her home for almost two decades and remains in close contact with many of them today. She and her husband Mark are also parents to two young adults who grew up at Bethany. Sheri believes that all of her experiences with children have guided her to where she is today; that working with children and families is her calling from God. She enjoys bringing her knowledge and passion together in His name and for His glory. Leading and witnessing young children begin and grow in their own personal relationship with Jesus is a joy and a privilege, a feeling like no other.
