At St. Matthew's we feel that it's OUR responsibility to "clear the way" for you to come to church.  We want you to be able to experience the great music, encouraging messages, friendly people and enjoyable atmosphere that are a part of St. Matthew's.  We also  know that your first time at church, any church, brings up some questions.  How do I get there...  What should I wear... what's available for my kids... what should I expect in church?  Here is a quick look at what you can expect, based on what people see when they visit St. Matthew's

 "It is a nice church and everyone is more friendly than I thought they would be."

         Patty

Here at St. Matthew's we'll make sure the first face you see when you approach the church has a smile on it.  Whether you need childcare or they are helping you find a seat, a greeter will be nearby to help you get where you need to go.

"The message helped me with what I was facing that week."

   Chuck Sarah Jon  

You'll enjoy upbeat music, practical messages, with an historic liturgy that help you deal with real life issues.  We'll even give you a helpful outline with bible passages.   What you learn on the weekend, you'll be able to use during the week.  We want to help you connect with the personal hope and practical help that God can give us through the Gospel message.

The offering is for those who are part of the St. Matthew's family.  Instead of wanting you to give something, we want you to get something.

"I can wear what's comfortable."

        Colleen & Carol

We're more concerned with meeting your real life needs than with what you wear.  So, dress casually and you'll fit right in.
