Hannah Lindsey, Church School Facilitator
Hannah relocated to Beaverton from Washington approximately five years ago. In addition to her position as a Church school facilitator at Bethel, she has worked in food service-waitressing and hosting. She also plans to shift her energy and passion toward her gift as an artist. Hannah also serves as a nanny two days a week. Hannah grew up in Olympia, Washington. She was an active member of the UCC church there. She enjoyed the youth group and as a senior, she helped coordinate a Vacation Bible school. Bethel seemed like a good fit. Hannah and her husband, Mark, married in July 2008. They are expecting their first child this spring.

Yvonne Yang, Accompanist/Pianist
Yvonne accompanies the Chancel Choir during rehearsals and on Sunday mornings, and shares her gifts on the piano with us during worship services. Yvonne has degrees in Piano Performance and Computer Engineering. She has perfect pitch (which comes in handy in matching the passing train?s whistle) and impeccable timing (which is invaluable when the musicians can?t get it down). Unfortunately for the world of music, Yvonne masquerades as a board engineering manager at Intel during the day.
