Greetings from North Carolina

Hi. I am Kevin Matthews, the chaplain of St. Mary's House which is many things, but first is a campus ministry to the colleges and universities of Greensboro, NC. We operate out of an unusual model in that we have an ongoing congregation of students, faculty and community members that meets on Sunday morning in addition to our student group that meets in the evening for worship and a fellowship meal.

I am one of the few on the trip who have been to Israel before, having spent time there while in seminary, back in 1983. I look forward to seeing what has changed in the way people respond to the current political situation, but also to how my perspective has changed now that I have been an Episcopal priest for over 20 years.
