When Jonathan Matson got a job as a butcher at Price Chopper his father, Pastor Scott Matson of the Rensselaer County Landmark Baptist Church in Berlin, dubbed him “my butcher boy.” It could be worse. The second boy, Matthew, has a fine mop of blond hair and his father calls him “my needs a hair cut boy.” But when the Pastor’s away, the butcher boy will play pastor. Here Jonathan is seen leading the church service for the visiting pastor.
Ironically, Jonathan had just made the decision to enter Bethany Bible College in Essex, New Brunswick. When Jonathan enters the ministry he will be a fourth generation Matson to do so.
