Upcoming Events

Life Together Weekend
LIFE TOGETHER WEEKEND is a time of extended fellowship that affords the entire St Matthias family a chance to experience and practice being a Transformed Community. The event is for all ages and stages. We'll have time for prayer and praise, time for being taught and for encouraging one another, time for making new friends and growing closer to old ones. There will be great food, excellent music, Bible study, and fun. At the heart of the weekend is an exploration of how the gospel leads us to a richer and fuller experience of community. Please plan to join us!
