She has a BA in English from Madonna University, and is currently on the path to becoming a Deacon in the United Methodist Church.

Matt rejoined the ministry at Fenton in 2017, having served here previously from 1999-2005. His formal training in music began at age eleven taking piano lessons and playing trombone in the band. A life-long United Methodist, he sang in the children’s and youth choirs, played in the orchestra, and began developing his music composition “chops” with the church’s Music Director. As an undergraduate music student at Central Michigan University in 1983, Matt formed and directed a touring choir. This opened the door to realize a calling that has led him to serve churches in Farwell, Flint, Clare, Fenton, and Flushing.
Creating and celebrating community through the gifts of worship and music are Matt’s passion. This passion is also expressed in his work as the Choral Director at Mott Community College and Mott Middle College, Choir Accompanist at Swartz Creek High School, Director of The Flint Male Chorus and Music Director for Swartz Creek Center Stage Community Theater. Since 2008, Matt has been in music ministry with his childhood friend in a duo called Brother 2 Brother, performing for sacred and civic events with the message that what unites us as Christians and as a human family outweighs what divides us. He is blessed to share in the journey with his wife, Kristi, and four adult children.

Kevin Marsee serves as the contemporary Worship Leader for our 11:05 service.  Through his music and leadership on and off stage, Kevin's passion involves leading people to share their God-given gifts and encouraging worship to give praise and honor to God.  "For me, music is powerful - but it doesn't transform us.  We communicate with music to lead others to worship Him - so that He can bring light to darkened hearts and minds.  My prayer is that we ask His Spirit to work in our lives, and that we seek to live a life for the glory of God."

The creative seeds were planted when Keven, at an early age, had the musical "aha" moment - and discovered that Schroeder was cool and practicing piano wasn't really all that boring.  Kevin is a graduate of the Interlochen Arts Academy and Oberlin College & Conservatory of Music.  He currently sings and plays keys in the Leroy Street Band and occasionally dabbles in local theatre.  In addition to spending his days enjoying the company of his wife, Karen and two beautiful daughters, Kevin is a Real Estate Broker, Developer, Residential Builder, and co-owner of Zion Restoration US.
