Saint Matthew's Youth Group will be rebuilding as the world emerges from the lockdown phase of the pandemic.  The 30-hour famine for 2022 is in the planning stages.  Stay tuned!

Picture
Classes are offered for children ages five through high school. Nursery care available for younger children.

"First Sunday" Family Services are held on the first Sunday of the month (with few exceptions) and the "extended day" programming on the third Sunday of each month (children stay in church school for the entire morning, receiving Communion in the Chapel at the close of the worship service, and rejoining their families in the Parish Hall). If you have a child you would like to enroll in Saint Matthew’s Church School, please speak with Karen Baldwin, Church School Superintendent.                                                                
A note to parents: ALL of our Church School Staff are required to attend “Safe Church” Training, and to encourage “Safe Church” practices, to help keep ALL of Saint Matthew’s children safe.  If you would like to know more about the “Safe Church” training and policies, please speak with the Rector.
