Matt Schnetz

Meet Our Pastor

McKenna Community Church is filled with people who are growing in the Lord and being led by Him. There is a great sense of adventure here as we determine God’s will for us and we endeavor to live it out practically. Our church is made up of people of all ages, from large families to singles. We enjoy each other from youngest to oldest! It’s a place where God’s grace is being taught and practiced in the lives of believers. One of our goals being to be deeply involved in the lives of people and help them in their journey to and with God.
So therefore, we proclaim the gospel, and preach and teach the Word of God. Truly, our desire is to love God and love others. And through His love and power, we desire to reach our neighbors and serve our world. Therefore, we press on to be more Christ-like in all areas of life. As Pastor, I’m very excited and passionate about what God is doing here in His church.
