“Proclaiming the Love of God for All People” has become our call to action. We seek to engage people where they are in their faith journey, and encourage them to take the next steps on their own pathway of discipleship. All of the ministries and programs are developed with the goal of making disciples here.
Children, Youth & Families
At St. Matthew’s we are passionate about the faith journey of the young people in our midst. Through occasional events and confirmation class, we nurture our youngest members in their faith.
During summer, a variety of summer camps are offered free-of-charge to children who have completed grades K-5. In July 2024, there were camps for cooking, art, music, and theater. Please contact Kelly Riddle, Community Engagement Coordinator, for information: community@stmatthews-elca.org
Outreach & Service Opportunities
At St. Matthew’s we are committed to our local Wedgwood community and beyond. Through our many ministry partners, we aim to be the hands and feet of Christ.
Music Ministry
Music is vital to the life and ministry of St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church. The Music Ministry is vibrant and welcoming, combining the rich Lutheran heritage of hymnody, choral and instrumental selections of great composers, as well as a variety of musical styles. During the school year, our adult voice choir meets on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 pm and participates weekly in worship. Our handbell choir meets on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 pm and participates in worship approximately once a month. Come join us!
