About Us
We gather on the 1st and 3rd Sunday during the service. At the beginning of our hangout session, students can enjoy music, grab a snack from the cafe, socialize, or engage in games. Furthermore, our gym is available for basketball, ping pong, foosball, and other enjoyable activities. Finally, we come together for a small group lesson based on our current curriculum.
We gather on the evenings of 2nd and 4th Sunday .
We’ve got games, worship, real talk, and—yes—probably a water or Nerf battle. Whether we’re diving deep into Scripture or playing extreme musical chairs, anything can happen. It’s youth ministry—with heart, humor, and a whole lot of Jesus.
Come hang out with us!

Matt Shelley
Youth Pastor | Certified Chaos Coordinator | Occasional Grown-Up

Born and raised in the heart of Baltimore City, Pastor Matt is one of six siblings—all proud graduates of Perry Hall Christian School. Alongside his wife, Andrea, he's raising three amazing kids—Matthew, Peyton, and Abigail—and pouring his heart into the next generation.
Before stepping into full-time youth ministry, Matt led a thriving men’s basketball ministry for over eight years while also serving in youth ministry at his previous church. That season laid the groundwork for what would become his true calling: walking alongside teens as a mentor, leader, and friend.
At Life Source Perry Hall, Pastor Matt leads all things youth—weekly gatherings, Bible studies, outreach events, mission trips, and leadership training. He’s known for creating a space where students feel seen, heard, and valued—no matter where they are in their walk with God.
His philosophy?
“Faith should be real, fun, and full of adventure.”
Whether he’s sharing the Gospel, battling it out on the basketball court, or just listening with compassion, Pastor Matt’s mission is clear: to point young hearts to Jesus and help them build a personal, lasting relationship with Him.
