Happy 4th of July!

July 5th is the Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time 
This weekend  as we celebrate the Independence of our country, we will do well to echo the Psalmist, saying, "Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for his mercy."  May we always recognize and use wisely the gifts of freedom and abundance He has showered upon us.

We welcome you to our website!  Our goal is to provide a site that reflects the level of activity at St. Matthew Catholic Church and the joy that we feel as a Eucharistic people!Here are a few tips for navigating the site: 

~Under “Schedule” to the left, you will find our
weekly Mass schedule. 
~Under “Staff” you will find the names and phone extensions
of parish personnel.
