Meet the Team

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
SHAWN BLETH

I am passionate about people, serving others, and creating a place where everyone feels welcomed and connected. I love seeing Lake Brownwood Christian Retreat come alive through laughter, fellowship, new friendships, and meaningful moments with God. It is a privilege to care for this special place and help create experiences that people carry with them long after they leave.

MAINTENANCE SUPERVISOR
RICHARD BLETH

I serve Lake Brownwood Christian Retreat as Kitchen Lead and Maintenance Supervisor, helping care for both the people and the place. Whether I’m preparing meals, repairing equipment, or keeping the grounds and facilities in shape, I work to make sure guests have what they need and the retreat is ready for them. I take pride in creating a welcoming, well-cared-for environment where guests can focus on fellowship, fun, and their time with God.

ADMINISTRATIVE AND DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR

It is my life’s ambition to love people well and point them to Jesus in whatever I do. At LBCR, God gives me the opportunity to do exactly that! I believe our gifts and talents are tools, not our identity, and when our identity is rooted in Christ, we can use those gifts to pour into the lives of others. It is a privilege to serve here and be part of the work God is doing!
