MEET THE TEAM
Jerry Gibson
Director

A native of Texas, Jerry graduated from Dallas Baptist University with a degree in theology and biblical studies. He has been involved in cross-cultural ministry for most of his life, going back to his earliest and most formative years serving with Native Peoples in South Dakota. Jerry has also formally served in cross-cultural missions since 2001, including ministry in three low-income urban areas of Dallas. He has traveled to more nations than he can remember to serve alongside missionaries and indigenous believers.
Most recently, Jerry served as the senior director of missions and church planting at Park Cities Presbyterian in Dallas, where he helped develop the process for preparing new missionaries called “Thrive.” Much more important than credentials, Jerry hopes his years of experience (sometimes learning things the hard way) will benefit him in this new position with MTW. Jerry has been married to Kerry for 20 years. They have two daughters.
Matt Ziehr
Central Texas Mobilizer

Matthew was born in St. Petersburg Florida, but got to Texas as quickly as he could. As a kid he would go on missions trips to Mexico every summer with his dad and looked forward to these trips all throughout the year. Matthew graduated from Concordia University in Chicago with a double major in theology and psychology, all the while playing on the soccer team. He spent six years teaching theology and apologetics at a private Christian High School in Austin, Texas.
Matthew is currently the missions and ESL director at All Saints Presbyterian Church when he isn't running around trying to catch his three little boys. Matthew has been married to his beautiful wife Jaime for four years and still can't believe she said yes. All of these things have helped to shape his love for missions and finding ways for people to serve using the gifts that God has given them. He is excited to be working for MTW and helping others find their passion for missions.
Teresa Weber
Youth Mobilizer

Teresa Weber is the Youth Mobilizer for the Central Hub. She completed an internship with Mission to the World in Thailand in 2019 and is zealous for missions. Teresa believes that people of all ages should engage in missions and is excited to mobilize youth and watch the Lord work in their lives as well as in the lives of those they serve.
UPCOMING EVENTS & TRIPS
WAYS TO CONNECT
MTW | Central still wants to connect with you! Below, you will find some options to connect, fellowship, and grow using both technology and in-person gatherings.
Advancing in Missions Workshops
Advancing in Missions (AiM) is a six stage journey designed to help churches grow their missions vision, structure, and involvement.
DIVERSITY IN MISSIONS
At MTW, we believe that sending more diverse missionaries better reflects the image of God and helps build more effective ministry as people of color bring their voices and gospel stories to those waiting to hear. If you would like more info about how the MTW Diversifi initiative and RADD (Reformed And Diverse Delegates) can help you in your mission, please contact one of our diversity mobilizers.
