It is the purpose of our Adult Enrichment program to provide opportunities for parishioners to deepen their faith, enrich their lives, and build community. Programs are offered based on identified parish needs, the liturgical calendar and/or contemporary issues with the goal of providing attendees an opportunity to share and grow in our rich Catholic heritage. All parishioners are invited to participate. St. Matthew’s most significant opportunity for adult faith formation is the Men’s/ Women’s Cornerstone Retreat program.

Calling the Men of St. Matthew’s
2017-2018 Matthew’s Men Dates
Mark your calendars now to join us in as we start a new year of Matthew’s Men faith-sharing breakfasts. Ask around. You probably know some friends or neighbors who have become Matthew’s Men regulars. Why not join them? We meet once a month on a Saturday morning over coffee and breakfast for some fellowship and for a discussion of faith-related questions that all men face. Whether you want to participate in the dialogue or just sit back and soak it in, you’ll be a welcome addition to the group. And we don’t take attendance; you don’t have to come every month, but we’re there if you’d like to. All of our breakfasts take place in the Bauer Room, starting at 8:00 AM with a hard stop at 9:30 AM, so you can get on with your other Saturday obligations or recreation. Our meeting dates for 2017-2018 are:September 23
