Pastor Jared Matthew
On Wednesday January 24th we heard a classification speech by Pastor Jared Matthew.
Jared grew up in Manheim, PA in what he calls farm country. He is one of 4 children, with two sisters and a brother. He and his wife Emily moved to Minnesota in 2010. They came to Minnesota so that Jared could study at MDiv Central Seminary for his Master of Divinity Degree. He is now the Senior Pastor at First Baptist Church in Faribault.
Jared has been married to his wife Emily for 7 years, and they are foster parents to a 6-year-old and twin 16-month-old brothers. February 2018, they will become foster parents to a brand-new baby.
Pastor Jared is on the go, when he isn't prepping for Sunday service, you can find him meeting with folks over coffee or a meal to talk about life and God's plan, being a Dad, or running. He decided to join Rotary because he felt it was a good fit for him and the life he is already trying to lead. Service above self is a moto he tries to live by.
We are so excited to have you Pastor Jared, thank you for your energetic and uplifting speech!!
