WE’RE SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE!

Our History

Bethel Pawn has been a proud part of the Bethel community for over a decade. Owned and operated by LaMont and Teresa Baudendistel, we are excited to be celebrating our 12th year of serving customers with honesty, fairness, and respect.

What started as LaMont and Teresa’s vision has now grown into a true family business. Today, their grandchildren, Brayden and Camryn, are helping run the shop and preparing to carry on the family tradition. Alongside them is Brayden’s close friend, Mike, who has become like family and an important part of the team.

At Bethel Pawn, we are more than just a pawn shop—we are part of the community. We strive to provide top-quality service, fair deals, and a welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels at home. Whether you’re buying, selling, or pawning, we treat each customer like family.

As LaMont and Teresa look toward the future, they are proud to see the next generation stepping up to continue the values that Bethel Pawn was built on: community, integrity, and trust.
