Matthew’s roles: overseeing and group elder, & teaching team / Leslie’s roles: teaching team, & children & youth contact
Matthew and Leslie Millen are Lehigh Valley natives who met in high school 25 years ago. Matthew is an attorney by trade and kingdom entrepreneur at heart, graduating from Princeton University, Seton Hall School of Law, and, most recently, Biblical Theological Seminary (now Missio) in 2017. Leslie loves using her degree in English to research, write, and teach for the church body and the local homeschooling community. Along with their four children, the Millens began their journey of under-shepherding the local body of Christ over 12 years ago. Vine Church Network was established in their backyard in 2021. The Holy Spirit has gifted Matthew and Leslie with a combination of exhortative teaching, apostleship, and faith by which God has allowed them to witness the birth of many new lives, families, businesses, and house churches dedicated to the mission of making disciples and spreading the good news of Jesus Christ for the furtherance of God’s kingdom.
