Matthew is a Jewish believer in Jesus whose heart burns for God’s glory to be seen in Israel and the nations. Experiences gained from growing up in a missions family living in places like India, Europe, and the Middle East have given him a broad understanding of the heartbeat of God for the whole world. Matthew serves on the leadership team of Gateways Beyond International, which is a family of messianic missional communities and ministries located in Cyprus, France, Germany and the United States. These communities are passionate about exploring rhythms of life together that unite worship and prayer, discipleship training and world outreach. Matthew helped to pioneer the Gateways Training School, a six-month discipleship program focused on training, equipping and launching young adults into their place in the Kingdom of God. Matthew and Serah were married in 2002 and for over 15 years they served as the leaders of the community in Cyprus. Together have led numerous short-term outreach teams to Ethiopia, Israel and much of Europe and continue to minister internationally as a couple. Following the call of the Lord to pioneer again, the Rudolph’s along with their beautiful children, Levy and Noa moved to the Northeast part of the US in 2018 to help serve the move of God in this region and be a part of a sending movement from the Northeast to the nations!
