Hello! I am Rebekah Pendleton. I have 10 years of full-time teaching experience, but I have been working with kids
almost since I was a child myself. I have a passion for leading kids to Jesus and helping them to develop the knowledge and skills which they will need to be successful in this world as well.
My husband, Daniel, and I currently live in North Carolina with our 4 boys. They are 14, 12, 11, and 9. We also have 2 bunnies, 3 dogs, 4 chickens, and mouse! We enjoy hiking, camping, and traveling as a family. I love to sing and make music for Jesus and am excited to share that passion with students at Cross Street as well!
I am a Carolinian by birth, but I have lived and taught in various positions in Tennessee, Nevada, and Iowa as well. I love to meet new people and am very excited to meet all of you!
Besides Bible, my favorite subject is English. My next favorite is history. I love to read about the way God has led his people through various times and situations and in different cultures.
