The Rev. Matthew Moretz is the creator of the "Father Matthew Presents" series of video blogs. The light-hearted pieces focus on issues of faith and ministry from the perspective of an Episcopal priest; a close-up view of the Episcopal Church in the 21st century.
In Fr. Matthew's words, "My faith journey began at the Church of the Good Shepherd while being raised in Augusta, Georgia. I had some excellent mentors as an adolescent. I discerned a call to the priesthood during and after my undergraduate at Davidson College."
At the end of the summer, 2007, the Rev. Matthew J. Moretz, formerly on staff at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Yonkers, accepted the position of Curate at Christ Episcopal Church, Rye, NY.
