My name is Matt! I’m 20 years old, turning 21 on tour! I’m from Columbia, Missouri, and I’ve been living and chasing missions since I was 8 years old, and man! I have a passion for seeing students encounter Jesus in a real and personal way. I wanted to be involved with Claim Your Campus because I believe God can use students to make a powerful impact and change the culture of their schools. My desire is to help create a culture of prayer, encourage other believers to live out their faith boldly, and share the hope of Christ with those who may not know Him. I believe every school campus is a mission field, and I want to be part of what God is doing in the lives of students and teachers. Through Claim Your Campus, I hope to grow in my own faith, strengthen a community of believers, and help lead others in prayer. My goal is to see each campus transformed by the power of prayer and the love of Christ.

A team of four young adults will commit the 2026-2027 school year to devote their time and talents to call a generation to pray for change across America. In 10,000 miles, this team will interact with students, pastors, leaders, families, and churches to build meaningful relationships and mobilize young people to intercede for campuses across the United States.
