A note from our new Youth Director, Kristin Gierke
Hello, St. Matthew families, my name is Kristin Gierke and I am truly excited to begin my new adventure here at St. Matthew’s as your youth director. I look forward to meeting all of you and getting to know you. I am very excited to be working and helping the youth and congregation to grow in their faith and understanding of Gods language and grace.
I was born and raised in Mount Prospect and I currently reside in Arlington Heights. I am currently enrolled in the Adult Discipleship class here at St. Matthew and look forward to the completion and becoming a member. I previously have been a member at Our Saviors Lutheran Church in Arlington Heights. In 2012, I graduated from Carthage College with a degree in sociology. During the past six years I was employed by Bright Horizons Family Solutions as their Lead Kindergarten Prep teacher. These six years taught me so much and it was a great pathway into my new journey here at St. Matthew’s. I love spending time with my family and friends and also enjoy active recreation. Some of the activities I enjoy include swimming, rollerblading and any outdoor activity that gives me the opportunity to experience Gods great creations. My faith has always been at the front and center of my life, and I apply it to each aspect of my day. In my prayers each morning I ask that the holy spirit might lead and guide me on the path that he wants me to take and that he would provide me opportunities to share my faith with others. I truly feel that this opportunity to serve God as the Youth Director here at St. Matthew is the answer to those prayers. I ask for your prayers as I joyfully begin to serve you and work with the youth.
