The Lord has called us to take the Gospel to the people of Arctic Siberia. Our home church (Emmanuel Baptist Church) recognized the call of God on our lives and ordained me (Matt) to the Gospel ministry. They are also functioning as our sending church. Currently, we are on full-time deputation to go to the field of Arctic Siberia. It is our desire to be a blessing and challenge to churches around the country and to awaken the people to the great need of the people in Siberia to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The Lord has called us to a church-planting ministry in the Arctic Regions of Siberia. Our ministry will be working with Kevin and Jessica Jones for the first several years. These first years will be essential as we will have the guidance and mentoring of veteran missionaries while we adjust to the culture, language and people. Our hearts’ desire is to go to the far north and plant a church in the village of Tura and establish a base from which we can reach out to the surrounding villages. The Lord has opened the door for this area of the world, and we want to be sure to take advantage of this and go while the door is still open.
