"It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give you. This I command you; love one another." - John 15:16-17 |
Message from our Pastor
As your shepherd, I promise you my dedication to your pastoral needs and to be first and foremost – a priest of Jesus Christ.
In order for me to be an effective and happy pastor, I call upon you to place your gifts of time, talent and treasure before Jesus. I count on your support and collaboration. Let us continue to make our world ready for the second coming of Christ as we continue to build the Kingdom of God together. May Mary, Mother of the Church and Joseph, her spouse along with our dear patron, St. Matthew the Evangelist protect us always.
God bless you my friends and let us pray for each other daily.
Father Steve
Rev. A. Stephen Marcoux III
Perpetual Adoration
Come and be with Jesus present in the Most Blessed Sacrament. Our Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration Chapel is accessible through the church Monday through Thursday, 9:00am-4:00pm. Anyone wishing to pray outside of these hours is encouraged to become a regular adorer. Please contact the parish office for more information.
Religious Education
Religious Education Grades 1 through Confirmation and Vacation Bible School: Our religious education program is open to all children grades 1 through Confirmation, each year building on the next to provide a strong faith foundation for your child. Sacramental preparation and celebration is included. Classes are held on Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays during the school year. We even offer a summer vacation bible school to keep that faith alive in their hearts through the summer.
Parish Ministries
We welcome parishioners who would like to serve at the Mass to consider the ministry of Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist, proclaim the word of God as a Lector, greet and assist our parishioners as an Usher or serve on the altar during the Liturgy.
Celebrate The Sacraments
Baptismal Preparation: Parents of the child to be baptized are encouraged to take part in a baptismal catechesis which is held in the church once a month. This teaching helps the parents to better understand the sacrament and how to continue to share their faith with the child after baptism.
Marriage Preparations: Couples planning their wedding at St. Matthew meet with the Pastoral Associate to begin the initial preparations like taking a FOCCUS questionnaire which is reviewed with a leader couple; attend an engaged couple seminar; and then meet with the pastor or deacon to make final plans as they prepare for their special day.
