Steph MacDonald is the Worship Pastor at Zoe Church in Burnsville, Minnesota and also leads Mac Ministries with her husband, Micah!  Mac Ministries (501c3-Non-Profit) is ALL ABOUT THE GO! In the last two years God has ordered our steps. Steph and Micah MacDonald preach/lead worship all over the country and world. We were determined early on to pray and fast and let God open every door of opportunity. Therefore, we do not call or email pastors, leaders, directors or market our ministry. We ask God to open the doors for us. When we are asked to come and minister we recognize that it was God that brought us there and not our own doing. We love partnering with local church leaders and help equip/build into the region and place with what God is already doing there. We further those purposes by traveling the country preaching and leading worship for Sunday mornings, youth conventions, youth outreaches, summer camps, men’s events, women’s events, Wednesday night youth services, Missions and Speed the Light Tours, Christian mentoring and discipleship along with training and equipping the church.
