Parish Resources and Updates

Dear Ladies,

Are you a “Woman of Great Faith”? We warmly invite all women to join us here at St. Matthew for the 2025 Archdiocesan Women’s Conference, Beauty in Christ: Women of the Word!

When: Saturday, January 25, 2025, from 8:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Where: St. Matthew Catholic Church 

This inspiring day will feature dynamic speakers Kathryn Whitaker and Barbara Heil, who will spark a deeper desire in all of us to become “Women of the Word.” Connect with women across the archdiocese, strengthen your faith, and be inspired by God’s Word.

At St. Matthew, we will provide a light breakfast and lunch. Because we want as many women as possible to join us, there is no charge for the event, but donations are always appreciated.

We look forward to sharing this special day with you!


Recently we had another Eagle Scout project completed.  This one was for Leslie Strottman and included two parts at our church.

First the candle area in the back of the church was taken apart, cleaned and repainted, glass cleaned and all reinstalled.  Second part was cleaning all of the dishes we store for events such as a spaghetti dinner.  They were cleaned and then stored in Home Depot buckets they purchased for ease of movement when used.

Due to the ongoing construction progress, we have these items available.
