A Place to Grow Together

one of our newest parishioners...

 St. Matthias Church is a place of deep spiritual life put into action. We offer rich sacramental worship, open to all who seek a place of refreshment, rest, and direction in Christ.

Located in Uptown Whittier, St. Matthias has long been known for serving those in need of food, shelter, and other basics of daily life. Our music program offers inspiration and beauty to our Sunday worship and special programs. We have a variety of ministries and classes for adults who wish to deepen their experience with God and neighbor.

But St. Matthias is not just a place where

adults gather to serve and worship!

For families and children, we offer

+ a worship environment where children are

welcomed, accepted, and treasured

+ optional Nursery Care for infants and toddlers, when desired by parents

+ Christian Formation classes, designed to help children open their minds and their hearts to God and others, are offered for Young Children, ages 4-7, Elementary-aged Children, ages 8-11 and Youth, both Middle and High School

We also offer Christians in the World, an enrichment program for children, youth, and their households, which includes outreach opportunities, field trips, cultural events, and just plain fun – all with the purpose of placing God and the concerns of God’s Kingdom firmly in the center of young lives. The schedule includes both Saturday and Sunday events, offered monthly.

Looking forward

Coming Soon...

These events are for children, families,
and all who may be interested in having some fun and
learning together.

These are great days to invite friends to join us at
St. Matthias!!

In gathering supplies and buying food, it is helpful
to know ahead of time how many might be coming – but
reservations are not required.

Unless otherwise noted, the events listed will
all take place on Sundays after the 10:00 service.

Look forward to trips to

the Long Beach Aquarium

a minor league baseball game
