PASTOR

Matt Mitchell has been shepherding LEFC since 1998. He is a native of north-central Ohio and a graduate of the Moody Bible Institute and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.

Pastor Matt’s Passion is glorifying God by bringing people in to a love relationship with Jesus Christ through preaching the Word of God, shepherding the flock of God, and equipping the saints of God to do the work of the ministry.

Pastor Matt and his wife Heather (also a graduate of MBI) love to hike in Pennsylvania State Parks, read good books, and play with their four children: Robin, Andrew, Peter, and Isaac.
