Bekah York
I was born in New Brunswick, Canada to two loving, Christian parents. I became a Christian at a young age. We moved around a lot while I was young before finally settling down in Bangor, ME. I went to Berkshire Institute for Christian Studies and then transferred to Lancaster Bible College to complete my degree in both Bible and Music Education. I came back to Maine, worked as a music teacher(2013-2019), got married(June 2016), and started having babies in 2019. I have been a stay-at-home mom ever since, and I absolutely love it!
