Stanko: Joel Matonak - Middle School Ministry at ACAC

Joel grew up attending the Butler Community Alliance and felt a call to ministry at the LIFE conference. Joel attended Moody Bible in Chicago and interned at South Park Church. Joel started in May of 2012 at ACAC developing the programming and discipleship strategy for our middle school students. Joel has led summer mission opportunities to Greenville, Baltimore and Niagara Falls. He is on the District Youth Commission and leads the team for the district retreat. Joel joins John today to talk about ministry to middle school students, something that some consider the most difficult age to minister to in the church world.
