Ms. Cindi’s right hand gal is Ms. Bethany Hoobler. Ms. Bethany grew up in Wooster Nazarene, beginning around 1997, and even had Ms. Cindi as her kidz pastor 😜 – which is pretty cool when you think about it. 

Walking away from a successful business endeavor four years ago, Bethany felt the call from God to pursue a life in ministry. She didn’t really know what that would look like yet, but she knew it was His call to say “Yes” to His guidance and direction, and as she volunteered over the years in kids ministry, it was earlier this year that she officially came on staff to walk alongside Ms. Cindi as NazKidz continually grows week by week. 

In her specific area of ministry, she is passionate and excited to see the Word of God instilled into the minds and hearts of our kiddos. She knows once they have His Word hidden in their hearts that life becomes so much more meaningful and worth living, and that His Word will never leave them. 

She is married to Chad and they have three awesome daughters (Jade, Reagan & Tenley) running around the church helping mom and Ms. Cindi out at every turn. When not teaching God’s Word, you can find her running 🏃🏻‍♀️, enjoying a hot cup of coffee ☕️ or spending time with her friends and family.

Bethany, thank you for answering the call and serving Him and our kiddos, we know they’re in good hands.
