Bette MacKenzie, (AIM) Pastoral Assistant                    I have served at Berwyn United as an Associate in Ministry since 1995.  I continue to enjoy working in the "small town" of Berwyn and living in downtown Chicago. My work centers on Christian Education, administering the work of the Church Office, and liturgy and music. I delight in being involved with all aspects of congregational life and enjoy music (listening and playing), reading, and my two grandsons. I am married to Scott and have three grown children.

Should you need pastoral care or if you have questions about our congregation, please call the church office. I will be glad to assist you during this time of transition.

Pastor Carole Willer, pastor during the interim   Pastor Willer is part time pastor at First Lutheran Church of Berwyn. During this transition time, she serves our congregation as preacher at least twice a month, as Church Council guide and in pastoral care. Please call  our church office if you would like to contact her. astoar

Paula Swasko, Minister of Music

I guess I can honestly say that I was born and raised at church! My father, a pastor, and my mother, a loyal choir member, were always busy at church, so therefore my brother and I were there, too. My parents encouraged my musical training, so music played another important role in my life. I was raised in Vermillion, SD., and moved to Milwaukee in 1975. I studied music education at Carthage College in Kenosha, and at Concordia University, River Forest, where I received my Master of Church Music degree in 2002. I also teach General Music in the Cicero Public School and split my time as Minister of Music at BULC, a position I have held for ten years. I enjoy writing, playing, and performing music, gardening, decorating and crafting, and spending time with my wonderful children, Rachel and Chris, and my supportive husband, Phil.
