MISHAWAKA, IND.--Campus Safety officers are constantly on the lookout to keep us safe or help us out. They patrol around campus, help students who lock themselves out of their own cars and even offer “lost and found” services. They are always ready to help a student in need. And though they sometimes seem like superheroes, they are also real people with real lives.
Dawn Pease Moffett is a Campus Safety officer here at Bethel. She is going on her third year working for Campus Safety and she is very passionate about her work. Moffett’s duties as an officer consist of patrolling around campus, answering campus safety phone calls, helping students out when needed, and she has many more obligations.
Moffett is originally from Berrien Springs, Michigan. She has a very complicated history and is currently taking classes at Bethel while working as a campus safety officer. Her drive as an officer stems from her desire to help encourage young adults to not only live as good citizens but live in a way that honors God. Moffett loves having the ability to connect with college students and to be able to develop personal relationships with individuals. “‘Romans 12: 9-13 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.’” “I was considering the message of why I love working here and serving the Bethel community. This verse captures the message I try to live by serving others with love, patience and understanding. Serving others with a greater purpose than the task at hand,” said Moffett. Dawn Moffett is someone who loves talking to students and encouraging them to live in a way that honors God.Print
