We will be decorating the church for Christmas tomorrow, Saturday, December 6th, beginning at 10am. Everyone is invited to come and help out — it will be fun morning as we prepare Saint Matthew’s for the Christmas season. Coffee, tea, and morning munchies will be available. Everyone is invited to join us and decorate Saint Matthew’s!
And you don’t have to sing Christmas carols, if you don’t want to!

Saint Matthew’s will celebrate the 491st remembrance of the start of the Reformation at our weekend services on Saturday, October 25th and Sunday, October 26th. This is an important time of reflecting on why our Lutheran Church exists — to return the Gospel to the people.
Invite a friend or a family member to our worship services that evening.
And as a reminder, our Saturday service moves to its new 5:00pm start time on October 25th.

(New Milford, NJ) - The New Milford Interfaith Council, made up of houses of worship in the Boro of New Milford, have announced their annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. Each of the churches and synagogue in New Milford will stage food drives in their own congregations, which will culminate on November 23rd when each of the houses of worship will bring their food to the New Milford Presbyterian Church on River Road, the site of this year’s New Milford Interfaith Thanksgiving.
All food and monetary donations will go to support the New Milford Good Will Fund.
“Everyone knows that our local food pantries are facing a food shortage crisis,” Rev. Anthony J. Iovine, pastor of Saint Matthew’s Lutheran Church on Center Street in the boro, said. “As God’s children, our Father in heaven implores us to help those in need.”
For more information about the Thanksgiving food drive, please contact your local parish or synagogue leaders.
