Pastor David Matthews has been married to his wife Mary for 38 years and they have four grown up children. Together they founded and pastored the first house church in Ireland. Their marriage coincided with the outbreak of the violence in Northern Ireland and they have been involved in seeking to bring peace and reconcilliation to their trouble community.

David has been Senior Pastor of New Harvest Community Church since 1991 and has a particular love for the Gospels alongside praying for the sick and helping people.

"It is a particular joy of mine to be intimately involved with Catholic Charismatic Renewal and reconcilliation both here in the UK and abroad. It is also a great privilege to work with the back township churches of South Africa, overcoming prejudices and bringing white and black together."
