Natalie Barrette

Kitchen/Coffee Ministry Director

I was born and raised in the Scottville/Ludington area. I graduated from a Christian school here called Faith Academy. I am still connected with many classmates and was so blessed to have participated in that program. I have three wonderful children, two of whom are married, and one grandson. I’ve lived in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, for Bible school; Oahu, Hawaii, with Youth With A Mission (YWAM); and Atlanta, Georgia, before returning to my roots here in Ludington. I started a women’s consignment shop in 1997 after working with a classmate at her children’s store. I saw the need and decided it was time to expand my horizons. I enjoy my work; God has blessed me tremendously. I started going to Radiant when it was Greater life church around 2011. I was asked to help serve coffee and donuts after church, and eventually, it became my ministry and a joy to do. I have catered on and off throughout my life, so it’s a natural transition for me to be in hospitality and in the kitchen. I look forward to seeing what God has in store for me while I serve Him and others.
