“Missions exist because worship doesn’t.”  - John Piper, Let the Nations Be Glad

Southeast Asia

With a desire to serve the Lord, Tom visited East Asia in 2004 where God ignited in him a passion to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ among the unreached peoples of that region.  Since then, the Lord has opened many doors to establish His long term plans for the Matthews family as missionaries to East Asia.

Tom and Angie are members of Pioneers mission agency who, in partnership with ECC, seek to glorify God by initiating a church-planting movement among the unreached of East Asia.  The Matthews are leaving for the mission field in July of this year.  If you would like to join in financially supporting them, please make your check payable to Eastside and in the memo line write "Matthews to Asia."

Tom & Angie have four children: Robert, Annabelle, Nicolas and Madeline.
