Mateo has been married to Kaleigh since 2021. He has a B.A. in Christian Ministry from North Greenville University. Originally from Hampton, Virginia, Mateo moved to Georgia in 2020 to go into ministry as a student pastor. He enjoys spending time with his wife and their 2 cats, Gibbs and Tyrion, watching movies, and staying active.

His prayer for the student ministry is that they would know what it means to be a part of a real community with other believers, to have a real relationship with God that consists of daily time spent with Him, and to feel the urgency of the need for Jesus that their friends, neighbors, and family have. In other words: Real Community, Real Devotion, and Real Responsibility.

For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. 1 Corinthians 2:2

“…For just as rain and snow fall from heaven and do not return there without saturating the earth and making it germinate and sprout, and providing seed to sow and food to eat, so my word that comes from my mouth will not return to me empty, but I will accomplish what I please and will prosper in what I send it to do.” - Isaiah 55:10-11
