Stroud Valleys, England

Matt Caddick is Pastor of Counterslip Baptist Church in South Bristol.

Although from a non-Christian family, Matt grew up going to Counterslip and was baptised there when he was 14.

In his late teens and early twenties, Matt drifted from church but experienced the transformative grace of Jesus, who continually drew him back.

After years in the bar and nightclub scene, Matt felt called to serve God, becoming a youth worker and, in 2019, stepping into his role as pastor at Counterslip. Passionate about seeing the church thrive as the bride of Christ, Matt’s vision is to inspire deep relationships with Jesus and spread hope to the world.
