Matt and Liz Eck

For more than 16 years, Matt and Liz Eck have faithfully served in Vienna, Austria, helping cultivate, equip, and mobilize Christian leaders in one of Europe’s most spiritually challenging environments.

Austria is beautiful, historic, and deeply secular. Many people have access to comfort, culture, and opportunity, yet still wrestle with emptiness, isolation, and questions about purpose. The Eck family believes the hope of Christ is the answer.

Through local church ministry, home groups, outreach, discipleship, and leadership development, Matt and Liz invest deeply in people from all kinds of backgrounds. They walk alongside Austrian believers, university students, refugees, young families, and new Christians, helping them grow in faith and become leaders who can impact their own communities.

Their ministry is built on relationships. It happens around dinner tables, in living rooms, in church gatherings, over coffee, and through everyday conversations that point people toward Jesus. They are passionate about strengthening local churches, mentoring future leaders, and helping others discover that true fulfillment is not found in the things of this world, but in Christ alone.

The Eck family’s vision is simple but powerful: to see lives transformed by the Gospel and to help raise up a generation of Christ-centered leaders who will reach Vienna, Austria, and beyond.
