In response to God's love, St. Matthew's is a faith community welcoming all to grow in faith, to worship Christ and to reach out to everyone
Since the pandemic, it has been more difficult to connect with our friends and family. To help connect with our church family, you can do that now.

Dear Faith Family,
🎶 God is so good, God is so good, God is so good, He’s so good to me.🎶
These familiar words from a favourite song keep echoing in my mind lately as I think of all the wonderful, supportive people in my Faith Family at St. Matthew’s.
Thank you to each and every one of you who have upheld me in prayer, sent beautiful e-cards and spoken words of comfort for my family and me during the recent loss of my son, Terry. I feel that God is sending me a message, too, in the discovery that the last place Terry went was the Palm Sunday worship service in your midst. Thank you for making him feel welcome.
It pleases me to realize God has brought the faithful members of St. Matthew’s an excellent new Shepherd who will continue to strengthen our congregation making sure St. Matthew’s remains an excellent example of people who, in response to God’s love, welcome all to grow in faith, to worship Christ and to reach out to everyone.
Bless you all,
~Beth Armitage
To my ever-faithful and caring St, Matthew’s Family-
I wish you and those you love a joyous celebration of the hope and promise of this holy season. May our Risen Lord, who has promised to be with us always, bless all your Easter days!
Pastor Jukka and Vera send their Easter blessings to everyone at St. Matthew’s
