Our Pastors

Pastors Matthew & Mari Thacker were installed as pastors of Bethel Assembly on Sunday, May 29th of 2016. With a passion to tell the world about Jesus and a heart for people, God began to speak to them about pastoring. Shortly after, their pastor, Ezequiel Pecina, superintendent of the West Texas and Plains District, asked them to come to Post, Texas to minister.

They are building relationships with the congregation by discipling and teaching.
