Beth Borchert-Thomas
Children and Youth Music Director

Beth Thomas is our  Children and Youth Music Director. She works with Salt & Light youth and directs other programs.. She plans not just a children's choir and a youth choir, but a music program that will incorporate, from time-to-time, orf instruments, handbells, percussion, guitars and other musical instruments into a well-rounded opportunity to joyfully worship God.

Beth states, "The most important thing I'm trying to accomplish is to introduce and educated all the kids from first grade to twelfth grade to Christian music.” Her goal is to have our children develop and enjoy worship skills through music and song.

She is more than qualified for the challenge. Reared in a home where her father was a Methodist Minister and her mother was the church Music Director and Organist, you might say Beth was born to the job. She went on to earn her Bachelor’s of Music Education from East Carolina University and her Master’s from Florida State University. Currently, she is the Choir Teacher at Mayfield High School, a post that she has filled for the last 14 years. There she teaches singing to nearly 200 teenagers in three different choirs including: Madrigals, Varsity, and Women Choirs.
