First St. Matthews Evangelical Lutheran Church
If you are looking for a Christian Church home (or even if you’re not), be assured, Jesus Christ is looking for you. We are a congregation of Lutheran Church–Canada, a conservative, confessional church body that still takes sin seriously & still takes forgiveness & the Saviour of sinners seriously.
The building at the northeast corner of 10th Avenue & 9th Street (beside the fire hall) is not a “members only” Lutheran clubhouse, but a hospital for sinners where we gather around God’s Holy Word & Sacraments, for the forgiveness of sins, for life & salvation.
We meet every Lord’s Day – Sundays @ 2:00 PM – worshipping in a traditional liturgical style.
Curious what goes on in a traditional, conservative Lutheran Church–Canada church? Having celebrated the 500th anniversary year of the Protestant Reformation, it might be a good time to “come & see” (John 1:46); with Nathanael, you just might be pleasantly surprised.
We preach Christ crucified.
We are pleased that our in person services have resumed but we are following physical distancing protocols and ask for your understanding and cooperation if joining us for in person worship.
Our service time is 2:00 PM on Sundays
Please call the church office at 519 364 4350 or Pastor Rinas at 519 327-8298 if you are in need of Pastoral care.
