Over the past 10 years, Matt and Stacy have served as full-time youth pastors in both Kentucky and New Jersey. During that time, they have reached out to over 1,000 students and their families. Their “family” approach to ministry gives them great insight on creating a church that ministers to the entire family.
During their time in New Jersey, they conceived and launched a satellite worship service called ReChurch. This worship service designed to reach the unchurched led them to dream about planting a church where imperfect people would be welcomed and embraced. After going through the proper channels, they were given permission to begin a work in Oldham County, Kentucky.
Leaving full-time ministry was not an easy decision to make, but Matt and Stacy are confident that God has something great planned for the days ahead. They are planting the church that God gave them vision for. Four Hills is not their church, but His church.
