St Matthew affirms the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBTQ+) members of our parish family and the broader community. 

​

St Matthew Community is a welcoming hand of Jesus extended to LGBTQ+ parishioners, their families, and friends.  LEAD ministry provides education and clarification on LGBTQ+ matters.

​

The St. Matthew LGBTQ+ Ministry commits to modeling a community of faith and spirit that works toward openness and understanding.  LEAD strives to offer justice, healing, and wholeness of life for all God's people. 

​

We believe that the unique diversity of the Community of St. Matthew demonstrates a unity of faith that transcends our differences and celebrates the gifts we are from God, our Creator.
