First Baptist
Welcomes Dr. Matthew L. Snowden as Pastor
On Sunday, August 8,
2010, the congregation of First Baptist Church, Waco
unanimously voted to call Matt Snowden as its new pastor.
Matt received the unanimous recommendation of both the
Pastor Search Committee and the Deacon Fellowship before
preaching in view of a call during the Sunday morning
worship service on August 8. Matt comes to First Waco from
the First Baptist Church of Meridian, Mississippi, where he
has served as Associate Pastor for three years.
Previously, he was pastor of two churches in
Mississippi--Truitt Memorial Baptist Church in Pearl, and
Wanilla Baptist Church in Monticello. He has worked with
the Baptist Student Union, Habitat for Humanity and the
Mississippi Coordinating Council of the Cooperative Baptist
Fellowship in recent years.
Matt is married to
Meredith Snowden. Meredith is trained as a teacher, but is
currently focused on raising their two children Molly
Katherine (4 ½ yrs.) and Wes (3 yrs.). Matt graduated from
Truett Seminary with his Doctor of Ministry degree in 2009.
He earned his Master of Divinity from New Orleans Baptist
Theological Seminary. He received his undergraduate degree
in Religion and Philosophy from William Carey College, where
he was also awarded the highest honor given to an
undergraduate student for leadership and citizenship.
Matt and his family
will be officially starting their ministry with FBC on
Sunday, August 29th. Please come welcome the Snowdens in
person during the morning worship, and in the afternoon at
our church-wide picnic. In the meantime, you may contact
Matt by e-mail at msnowden@fbcwaco.org.
