SAM (Synod Authorized Minister) & Family Ministries Coordinator
Matthew Rolfson
Family and background
Born in Watford City to David and Jan Rolfson. I grew up with my sister Jessie and brother Nathan. Later my little sister Bethany came along. In 2009 I married Kimberly Bryson from Chinook Montana, and we have two daughters, Nora, and Leah. My family and I love camping and playing many types of games. I have lived here for most my life. Between 2004 and 2010 I perused a career in Law Enforcement and work with Lutheran Social Services until 2020. Today I live on the same road that four generations of my family grew up on. My daughters will be the fifth. I am still farming and working at the Horizon Assistant Living. That means after a long day away from the family we always make time for an activity together.
How would you describe your role at First Lutheran Church?
I am the Family Coordinator responsible for preparing weekly and monthly gatherings. My role will be helping our youth programs grow as well as building an adult volunteer group.
What are your passions or hopes in ministry?
We are in a rebuilding stage for our church community and my goal is to help any way I can. To do that I want everyone to know I am phone call away. I would love to see our children excited for the ministry we provide to the area. From serving hot chocolate at the Parade of Lights to making care packages for our community. My hope is that First Lutheran Church is going to be known to our families as a place the loves them no matter who or where they are.
A random fun fact about yourself
I love to play Games online with new and old friends. For the last 10 years I make it a point to game with friends online in the Fall to early Spring. Also, I am a big fan of action novels and a good Root Beer.
