Senior Pastor
Rev. Matt Paul
Greetings, and welcome to the Opportunity Presbyterian Church website. I hope that during your cyber-visit to our community you will get a taste of the many opportunities for spiritual growth that await you at OPC. If you see something that sparks your interest or curiosity, please contact us. We’d love to hear from you.
While you’re here, I’d like to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Matt and I serve as OPC’s Pastor. I am in ministry to help you in the process of discovering what God is doing in your life, to support you as you grow in a relationship with Jesus Christ, and to challenge you to serve according to the gifts God has given you. (It keeps me busy, but it is also my passion.)
I am a native of Eugene, Oregon, where I attended the University of Oregon and received a Bachelor of Science in Finance. After a brief stint in the corporate world, God called me to seminary and ultimately into ministry. I attended Princeton Theological Seminary and graduated with a Master of Divinity. I was ordained in 1996 and have served the Presbyterian Church (USA) as an Associate Pastor for Youth in Grants Pass, Oregon, as a solo pastor in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and now here in Spokane Valley at OPC.
My wife’s name is Rebecca and together we are responsible for three beautiful and talented children. Some of the things we enjoy doing as family include taking part in school and extracurricular activities, going on family outings, and participating in church mission trips. My personal interests include hiking, playing the guitar, gardening, and working on home improvement projects.
I hope this gives you a feel for me and my ministry. Perhaps we can meet face to face one day. Until then, blessings and Godspeed!
Pastor Matt
