St Matthew Orthodox Church is a parish of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA), within the OCA Diocese of the Midwest.
Our parish life is rooted in the weekly celebration of the Divine Liturgy every Sunday at 9:30 am. Guests and new members are always warmly welcomed at our services and activities. Non-Orthodox may participate in every way, except for reception of the Sacraments; if you are interested in learning about becoming Orthodox, please speak to the parish priest!

Finally, we intentionally keep our website minimalistic because the internet is not reality. Please "come and see" us in person!
