Welcome!
Thanks for visiting the Kladniks' page.
Matt and Grace met in Bible College at Pacific Life Bible College in Surrey, BC. Just weeks after graduation they were married in Seattle, Washington and soon made the journey to Southern California to be youth pastors. As youth pastors, Matt and Grace were able to put into practice the many skills that they had learned at school. Grace discovered that her passions and purpose were found in her ability to lead and encourage others in worship. She is also a gifted counselor and loves to mentor others over a cup of tea. Matt is working on his Masters of Divinity at The King's College and Seminary and has found a real passion in being a mentor. He can usually be found sitting behind a good book with a cup of coffee. Matt and Grace are most passionate about recognizing the gifts in others and helping them to use them.
Matt and Grace are headed to Redcliffe, Australia to plant a church there. They are very excited to get involved with the community there and see how they can be a blessing. There are three foundational aspects of the church that they seek to develop. Firstly, it will be a safe place where people can encounter God. Second, attention will be given to training, equipping and mentoring so that people can grow in their relationship with Christ. Thirdly, they will provide opportunities for people to use their unique gifts and talents to spread God's love.
Matt and Grace are looking forward to investing in a new generation of leaders that are desperate to take the love of God to hurting people. They see Australia as a land of harvest and a place where God is going to show up in power. They can see God's hand of preparation every step of the way, getting them ready for just such a time as this.
