Last Sunday was our final worship service in the sanctuary for three months as the Refresh Our Sacred Space project begins.

This morning was our first service in the Hall of the Evangelists where we will worship for the summer months.

Both were special, Spirit-filled occasions!

Congratulations to our Confirmation students this past Sunday!

Wishing you all a blessed Ascension Day!

[Jesus said]: "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” When he had said this, as they were watching, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. -Acts 1:8-9

Now, at St. Matthew, you can feel even safer in our pews after a number of our staff, council members, and volunteers gathered together this week to undergo fire extinguisher training! A special thank you to the local Avon Volunteer Fire Department for coming out to lead and supervise this safety class.

This will be the final week for our Seasons of Giving Peanut Butter Drive!! Donations of peanut butter (any kind) are requested for “The Helping Haitian Children Foundation”. This is a school based lunch program for children in Port Au Prince, Haiti. “Charlie” a local village baker makes bread daily for about 400 Haitian children who eat only bread before school. The peanut butter we donate will provide a tasty source of protein to make peanut butter sandwiches for all these kids! Monetary donations are also welcome to help cover shipping costs estimated to be around $600.00.

You can bring your donations to the church and place them in the bin located in our Gathering Space. If you are not a member, but still wish to donate, please contact the office for more details!
