GIVEN: Unveiling the Mystery of Marriage on December 1, 2018 at St. Ursula, Parkville

Matt and Stephanie Regitz have been married since Saint Patrick’s Day of 2001 and double as parents and ministers at Prince of PeaceCatholic Church. Both graduated from Texas A&M University, and Matt worked as a salesman for 5 years in the oilfield before his childhood parish. Stephanie was an elementary school teacher before bringing her gifts home to their houseful of answering a call to trade in his company car for the new and crazy life as a youth minister at kids as a full-time mom. Matt completed a Masters in Theological Studies from the University of St. Thomas in 2009 and has worked as the youth minister at Prince of Peace alongside his brother, Dave Regitz, for the past 15 years. Stephanie started St. Gianna’s Hope Ministry to serve moms who have suffered a miscarriage or infant loss. Their own story of grief and recovery has radically changed the way they view their own roles as ministers and parents. They have four earthly children (Athan, Becket, Anna Tess, and Kieren) and a daughter, Mary Clare, now in heaven. Matt and Stephanie hope their raw and passionate journey of faith will remind people that Jesus loves us to death...and beyond!
