The MATTHEW MINISTRIES MATTERS show’s main goal is to teach topics of interest from a Scriptural perspective and help listeners to practically apply what they hear to their everyday lives.  The show’s format will be teaching, interviewing local missionaries, ministries, and guest teachers, or a combination of both.

Susan Townsend grew up in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania where she learned good values and work ethic. After graduating from West Chester State College, she taught tenth grade biology at a high school in Fairview Village, PA.  After two years teaching school, she joined the U.S. Navy where she served for twenty years, retiring as a Commander.  She and her late husband, John Townsend co-founded Matthew 25:34-40 Ministries where they had missions in Ukraine and India that they visited many times over the years.  Susan made nine trips to China to deliver Bibles.  She and John provided worship services at jails, convalescent homes, and the local rescue mission.  When her husband passed away, she reworked the ministry and changed the name to Matthew Ministries.  As a new radio personality, she can draw from her many unique experiences to do her show, “Matthew Ministries Matters.”
