Matt and his wife Jenny have been a part of Covenant Fellowship since June of 1996, when the church called Matt to serve as Youth Pastor. He and Jenny worked together with the youth until July of 1998 when he was called as Pastor. Matt grew up on the other side of the state, in Bradenton, while Jenny grew up in Orlando. Matt and Jenny were both blessed to grow up in Christian homes, and both came to know Christ early in life, Matt at five and Jenny at seven. The two met and married while in college at Florida State University, where Matt got his Bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies, and where Jenny received hers in English Education. After graduating from FSU, they spent three years in Fort Worth, Texas, where Matt got his MDiv from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and Jenny taught High School English. Since moving to Stuart, Matt and Jenny have been blessed with five children. Wil, Kylie and Davis were all born in Stuart and are now young adults in our church family. Their twins, Gloria and Dalton, joined the family initially through foster care at three and a half, and were legally adopted just before their sixth birthday. When she's not taking care of the family or spending time with people from church, Jenny works as a life coach. When Matt’s not working at church, he likes to surf, work on projects around the house, and just hang out with his family.

Jay and Emily Holland have been at Covenant since January of 2008, and joined the staff in 2009. Both grew up in families that loved Jesus and made decisions to follow Christ early in life. Jay graduated from Liberty University in 1999 where he received a B.S. in Religion-Biblical Studies. Upon graduation he served as a youth/associate pastor in his hometown of Barboursville, West Virginia, for seven years. Married in 1999, Jay's first wife, Christy, went to be with Jesus after a long illness during their time in Barboursville. In His sovereign grace, God blessed Jay with Emily (a Stuart/Hobe Sound native and also a Liberty grad) after they were "prayed together" by Emily's sister and one of Jay's friends, a couple who also worship at Covenant. In January 2007, Jay and Emily were married, and served in Nashville, TN, until the Lord brought them to Stuart, FL. Jay worked for his father-in-law in the wholesale produce industry for a year before joining the staff of Covenant in 2009.
