Kelly Cope served as Children and
Technology Coordinator. Kelly joined the staff in 2003 and in 2010 became Technology
Coordinator.
Kelly (John) Cope was born in 1971 and had lived in Nanticoke. In 1985 she moved with her mom and two brothers, John and Sam, to the Bloomsburg Area. She graduated from Central Columbia High School in 1989. Kelly graduated in 1993 from Bloomsburg University with a degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. While attending Bloomsburg University she worked at Giant Food Store as a cashier, and various jobs assigned.
The job market for teachers in the local area is very few and hundreds of applicants apply for just one job. While trying to get a job as a teacher Kelly would substitute in the local school districts, work at Giant, and in the summer work at Camp Lavigne as an aquatics director and an archery director. After 3 years of no calls for an interview in any teaching position Kelly decided to go back to school. This time she entered into the Institute of Interactive Technologies. In 2000 she graduated from Bloomsburg University with a Masters in Instruction Technology. In 2001, Kelly found a job opportunity that incorporated both her degrees, teaching software classes at New Horizons Computer Learning Center in Wilkes-Barre.
In 2003, Kelly joined the staff
of Wesley. Now she can use her skills in both her degrees for what God has
in mind for her. She works hard with the Web Ministry
Team to keep the website current. Besides the website, there are other technology
needs in our church. We project our worship service every Sunday, coordinate
the soundboard volunteers, video the worship services for our LAMs, and broadcast
the service over the radio. Some of other duties include lining up nursery
volunteers for Infant, Toddler, and Preschool during worship services, and
keep an accurate database of individual who are Safe Sanctuary Certified.
Kelly can be reached by calling the Church Office, (570) 784-1407 extension
