Matthew Jones

Meet
Matthew '25

You look around at this building, you look outside at the mountains, the trees, and all these beautiful people at Montreat. Everywhere you look, it’s God’s creation and His glory. My thing is that life is too short to have a bad day. So try and have fun, but have fun through Jesus. Find little ways to shout out, jump for joy, and do whatever you want to do.
