St. Matthew's prides itself as a friendly congregation that seeks to be compassionate to all. You are free to join any of our services. After Sunday morning services we invite you to join us for coffee and baked goods in our fellowship hall just across the breezeway from the sanctuary.

We have an active faith formation group (formerly known as "Sunday School") held during our 9:30 Sunday service as well as an active youth ministry segregated into middle school and high school age groups. We also have a wonderful Pre-School and kindergarten program as well.

There is abundant parking around the church with entrances either from our driveway circle or through our breezeway. There are three handicap parking spaces near our breezeway entrance. Property signage guides you to the entrances.

As casual as you like but we do ask that you be respectful of others.

You can reach out to us via our CONTACT form, give us a call during office hours or complete an information card available in the card holders on the back of every pew.

Many! Please click our MINISTRIES link at the top of each page to review the many different activites our congregation supports. You are welcome to join as many as you like or just enjoy our worship services in person or online.

Matthew authored the first Gospel of the Bible's New Testament, now known as the Gospel of Matthew. Prior to preaching the word of God, he worked as a tax collector in Capernaum. After Jesus' Ascension, Matthew preached the Gospel, as Jesus asked his disciples to do. It is believed that he established Christian communities in Ethiopia and other sections of the continent of Africa. Tradition tells us that he died as a martyr.

Martin Luther was a German monk who began the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century, becoming one of the most influential and controversial figures in the history of Christianity.

Luther called into question some of the basic tenets of Roman Catholicism, and his followers soon split from the Roman Catholic Church to begin the Protestant tradition. His actions set in motion tremendous reform within the Church.

A prominent theologian, Luther’s desire for people to feel closer to God led him to translate the Bible into the language of the people, radically changing the relationship between church leaders and their followers.
