For more than 40 years, Beth faithfully served her church, family and wider Christian community, often in quiet and practical ways.

Hundreds of people gathered at Matamata Bible Church on Wednesday 12 August to celebrate the life of Beth Bay, who died on August 8, 2026, aged 73, after two strokes. Beth’s family, friends, and church community (Manawarū Bible Chapel) remembered her as a woman whose faith shaped every part of her life, from family and farming to music, administration, adventure, hospitality and quiet practical care.

“Today, we honour her life in which she drew no attention to herself and all the attention to her saviour, Jesus. In truth, Beth lived to be forgotten so that Jesus would be remembered.“
