Matthew King is currently living in Wroklaw, Poland. A passion for the people and country began to grow a few years' ago through friendships in the UK with Polish people and other Europeans. He visited Gdynia in Poland for the first time in 2003. After this initial visit it became clear that God wanted him to live in Poland. Matthew is now teaching English and living in Wroclaw City centre, he is trying to learn the Polish language and getting to know more of the culture. Matt is involved with The Rock Church where there are many young people, but he is also involved with a number of other churches too. He feels that prayer for Poland and its people is vitally important
