St. Matthew the Apostle Catholic Church

Seems like a great parish! I also love the chapel downstairs. However, I signed up to help out at the perpetual adoration chapel as a sub and I’m usually free most often to help in the evenings, when the door to the chapel is locked. I called the parish office and told them I picked up a later time slot and was denied the code to the door, and I was told to walk around and go through the church doors and cut through that way. That worked. But a few weeks later, I signed up to fill in at 9pm on a Saturday, not thinking about it and realizing later that there would be no way for me to get inside this time. Thankfully there was a parishioner outside sitting in his car. He said they weren’t supposed to give the code out. I requested that he just open the door so I could get inside, but he refused to let me in until I could find a confirmation email proving to him that I was supposed to fill in during that hour. It was extremely frustrating. I’m not sure I will fill in anymore without the code because I’m taking a gamble as to whether or not I can even get inside to do my duty that I signed up to do. This is not my parish so I understand I’m not entitled to having the code, but I want to help because of how important Eucharistic Adoration is and I really appreciate having perpetual in the diocese. It’s easy enough for me location wise since I live on the east side. I know it’s a large parish that I doubt is in dire need of people, but I would still suggest being a little less selective of who is allowed to have the code, especially people who are trying to help you. Otherwise, this seems like a really awesome parish!

A great welcoming parish. If you're just passing through or looking for a new place to call home, try St. Matthew's

Just a wonderful experience all the way around the sermon is very well Delivered for those that may not totally sometimes have a hard time understanding what the meaning of the sermon is about, The people are great friendly, They go above and beyond the healthy community.

Jesus always get 5 stars BUT i would give this church architecture 1 star. Why did they tear down the original church? Was there a fire? I swung by to show my son where i went to school and church when I lived here and it changed, a lot. I'll miss praying the stations of the cross winding around that circular church of old. God bless.
