Mary Beth currently works at Fellowship Greenville as the Women’s Ministry Coordinator, where she uses her gifts of teaching, discernment, and administration to pour into the lives of women in the Greenville community.

Over the last 13 years, Mary Beth has been a mother to dozens of kids who needed comfort and protection. Her experiences as a foster parent have developed in her a strong advocacy and tireless effort to protect the vulnerable children in this community.
