Pastor Matt and Beth Smith began their ministry in Northeast Ohio 26 years ago. They bring a new and fresh perspective on learning about God and his will for us. They came to Middle River Friends in 2019.
They have 4 children. Their oldest son is married and living in Fort Wayne, while their daughter attends seminary at Asbury in Kentucky. Their youngest two boys minister with them and are a great joy to have.
Pastor Matt has a Master’s degree in Transformational Leadership and a Fellowship Degree in Quaker Studies.  Beth has a Master’s degree in Family Ministries.
Matt and his family are a great addition to our new outlook on ourselves, our church, and our community. Come and Join us and see what is happening.
