President’s Club Members

Larry and Lynne Petersen

Larry and Lynne PetersenWe believe in Bethel because our lives have been intertwined with Bethel from high school days to the present,” says Larry Petersen C’62, S’66.
Larry and Lynne (Stapp) ’65 met when both were students at Bethel. “Bethel graduates have been our pastors, our mentors, our friends. Bethel’s faculty members have been models of Christian passion and commitment,” adds Larry. “Our own education experience at Bethel was challenging, yet rewarding. We have seen that the rigors of Bethel’s training for our children have prepared them for service as Christian leaders in their vocations and their churches.”

Larry, now retired, served in two pastorates and then transitioned to a career in senior care services. Lynne, who works part time as an endoscopy nurse, and Larry, a volunteer missions director at Edinbrook Church in Brooklyn Park, are members of Bethel’s President’s Club.

“We are delighted that Bethel continues to move forward as a leader in God’s kingdom work and will keep praying for this ‘house of God!’”
