Beulah "Aunt Boo" Campbell

Born December 16, 1923 to Henry and Eva Campbell in Yuma, Colorado, she had 8 sisters and 2 brothers.

4 of her sisters survive her, Merna, Roberta, Eunice and Naomi.

She always talked about being raised in N. Hyde, Co. and various other places around Yuma, Co.

Her younger life consisted of milking cows and riding a horse to and from school.

After graduating from Otis, Co. High School in 1942 she knew what she wanted to do with her life. She wanted to devote her life to God and to help people.

In 1945 she entered Pasadena College, where she graduated with a Bachelors Degree. Then in 1949 she went to the Nazarene Theological Seminary.

1950 saw her in nurses training in Kansas City where she became a Registered Nurse.

In 1953 she became the Pastor of the Bethel Church, south of Yuma. She was then Ordained in 1955.

Her life of caring and giving was just beginning, as in 1956 she became a Missionary/Nurse at Low Mountain Indian Mission on the Navajo reservation where she teamed with Gertrude Jones to minister and care for Navajo people.

When she arrived in Flagstaff to begin her mission she was met by not only Ms. Jones also two young Navajo sisters that Gertrude adopted. Between the two they raised these girls to become a couple of fine young ladies.

Although losing Jeannette in childbirth, bringing up Kathy still is paying dividends.

1958 saw her at Smoke Signal Mission on the Navajo Reservation helping and healing anyone in need, be it physical or Spiritual.

In 1961 she became the Pastor for the Winslow Nazarene and Indian Church.

1963 saw her back at Twin Wells as she continued with her duties in Winslow and Twin Wells.

As her mother became ill, she returned to Yuma in March of 75 to care for her.

She worked at the Yuma Hospital until 1977. She then came back to Ariz. and the Church at Lehi.

She was always wearing out her vehicle by helping people, ministering to everyone from the San Carlos reservation, Lehi, Ft. McDowell, Parker and countless other communities.

1989, Beulah was the Southwest Indian District Planter working with the Ft. McDowell Indians. As their Pastor she continued as their planter and also the Pastor at the New Beginnings Church in Phoenix. After “”retiring””she continued to be the Associate Pastor at New Beginnings as well as working with the Indians at San Carlos.

As her health declined, she could no longer do all the things she loved doing all her life.

Her life is now complete in the knowledge that her mission in life is done and she’s looking forward to the next step her Lord has planned for her.

God Bless you Aunt Boo, the world has lost a special Angel.
