Rite of Passage

The Rite of Passage is a special time of recognition for 8th graders as they begin their journey to adulthood as mature Christians.  The 8th graders created posters showing important events in their lives. These posters are displayed in the Narthex.

Derby Day 2024

What do you get when you combine horses, good food, games, and St.Matthew’s parishioners? A Kentucky Derby party that what! While we had a smaller gathering for this year’s Derby party, it didn’t stop those from attending from having a great time. The Roca family won three gift cards for their style. We had quite a few winners who selected the right horse to win the race.

Spring Parish Workday – Stewardship in Action

Saturday, April 13 was a busy day at St. Matthew’s! About thirty parishioners of all ages pitched in to work on sprucing up the campus grounds and gardens and doing various needed indoor jobs. Lunch was served by our wonderful Brotherhood of St. Andrew.  Altogether, the members accomplished the following:

  • Spread mulch to freshen up the outside of the campus
  • Swept the shed roof and cleared out the area outside the shed including removing railroad ties, stacking bricks/pavers for reuse, removing brush and debris
  • Deep cleaned the ice maker and kitchen. Organized and de-cluttered pantry
  • Cleaned out the old narthex
  • Cleaned and organized storage and classrooms in the undercroft
  • Recycled old computers and other electronics
  • Replaced MANY burnt out light bulbs including parish hall, library, and other spaces

Thank you to all who contributed to this busy day!
