St. Matthias Anglican Church

Parish Life

Welcoming Home

A welcoming home implies a warm and loving family that invites us in to share its good fortune. So it is at St. Matthias. Many of our parishioners have developed long and strong bonds of friendship over years of dedicated service to the parish. We are ever conscious to extend this fellowship to newcomers and to draw them into our spiritual home. Our children are actively included in worship services and share their church school accomplishments with the entire parish.

Fellowship

Opportunities for fellowship abound — starting with coffee time after services. In addition, the parish gathers for suppers, Shrove Tuesday pancakes and Sunday Souper lunches. These provide convivial and delicious opportunities to meet one another. Fellowship is further enriched when parishioners work together on projects such as the Spring and Fall Flea Markets, the Parish work days, and the Fisher Park Sale.

Groups such as the Choir, Women Sharing, Family Life and the Fidelity Circle lend support and friendship to each other in addition to undertaking their many special projects.

Fellowship events are fun to attend, but behind every successful event are the parish organizers, chefs, dishwashers and table-setters. Might you like to offer some time to this fun-making?
