Serving Shattered Women: Beth Greco
Beth hails from Lubbock Texas and has been employed at the Walter Hoving Home since 1993. She currently serves as the Director of NY ministry and President of the organization. On March 14th, 2016 she was named as CEO/President of the Hoving Home and took over the leadership of the 54 year old ministry upon founder, John Benton’s retirement. The Home serves women whose lives have been shattered by life-controlling problems and desire a new way of living. The Home is a faith-based organization that offers love, hope, and support to women as they seek changes in their lives. Beth has been in recovery for over 30 years after battling an addiction that began when she was nine years old. Her primary purpose in life is to help others find the freedom she has found in her own life. She is an ordained minister who speaks in many different venues: conferences, churches, prevention programs, community events, jails, and detoxes, with the desire that others will find hope for their own lives through her story, and enjoys serving her community and those she comes in contact with every day. She is very active in many community organizations including the Cold Spring Lions Club where she served as president and was honored with the Melvin Jones award for excellence and Lion of the Year. She has served on numerous boards including the Adult and Teen Challenge Board. She has been honored by many civic and community organizations. She is married to Tim, who pastors a church in Cold Spring, New York and is also a reporter for the Putnam County News and Recorder. The Greco's are the proud parents to a 23 year old son, Jason.
