Pastor Matthew Wyatt announces plans to move, start church in Texas

WAITSBURG—Pastor Matthew Wyatt made a big announcement over the weekend.

In August, Wyatt and his wife, Krystal, will be moving to South Padre Island, Texas, to plant a church. Currently, he knows nothing about the plan, including housing, building, income, funding, etc. And though an extremely difficult decision, he knows in his heart that it is the right decision.

“We chose to say yes to Him despite the lack of details. We know He will reveal those when the time is right. Every question you have, we have in abundance,” Wyatt said, in an online announcement. “Waitsburg has our heart and has had my heart since my family moved here when I was just months old. We will miss everyone here and want you all to know the huge impact you’ve had on us.”

Over the next six months, the Wyatts will continue working in the community, building up leadership within the Waitsburg Christian Church, and praying for the right pastor to step in.

He said his greatest honor has been to pastor Waitsburg Christian Church and he is excited to see what the next six months bring, not just for the church but for Waitsburg and the surrounding communities.

“We will finish strong together. We love you all!” Wyatt said.
