Lynette Beutel serves as the Thrive Seniors Pastor and Care Ministry Director at Christian Life Assembly. She oversees Thrive gatherings that bring seniors together for connection and encouragement, while also leading a dedicated team that supports CLA’s Care Ministry, including counselling, support groups, memorials, benevolence, and walking with individuals and families through seasons of need. For Lynette, it is an honour to create spaces where people experience comfort, hope, and the love of Jesus in real and tangible ways.
Her journey with CLA began when her husband joined the staff as Director of Food Services in 2020. After more than a decade as an Educational Assistant, Lynette transitioned into ministry in 2022, stepping into a role that quickly became both exciting and deeply fulfilling. Passionate about serving people, she loves offering care, encouragement, and the reminder that no one walks alone. Her heart is to cultivate authentic community where people feel loved, seen, and valued, living out Hebrews 10:23–25: “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess… encouraging one another.”
Lynette and her husband love serving together at CLA, and they are blessed with four children, eight grandchildren, and another on the way in Fall 2025. Outside of ministry, Lynette enjoys painting, cycling, and—her favourite—spending time with her grandchildren, often hosting spontaneous dance parties. Isaiah 41:9–10 remains a grounding reminder for her of God’s presence and strength: “So do not fear, for I am with you… I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
