Royer resigns as director of admissions for Bethany Seminary.

Kathy Royer, director of admissions at Bethany Theological Seminary in Richmond, Ind., has announced her resignation effective Sept. 3. In her three years of guiding and shaping recruitment and admissions work at Bethany, since her appointment in Sept. 2004, she has traveled extensively to connect with potential students from the Church of the Brethren and other denominations.

"Kathy has worked determinedly to enhance enrollment, to increase Bethany's exposure in areas beyond Church of the Brethren realms, as well as to deepen connections with our Church of the Brethren college students," said Brenda Reish, executive director of student and business services and treasurer.

Previously, Royer served in various roles at Hospice of Miami County, Ohio, for nine years. She is an ordained minister in the Church of the Brethren. She plans to expand her spiritual direction practice through teaching and individual counseling.
