Newcomers Lounge (The Lounge)

On Sundays, after the 10:00 service, you're invited to the Newcomers Lounge, next to Clingman Chapel near the portico door. If you're visiting St. Matthew's, have been coming for a while, would like to chat with others about this parish community, or just want to find out what goes on around this place, this is for you.

A couple vestry members and a clergy person will be on hand to welcome you. This is a good time, too, to get to know others who are discovering St. Matthew's and all that this church has to offer. We hope you'll join us. Welcome!

The Last Word (Meeting Room A)
 A clergy person will be on-hand in the Lounge, following the 10:00 service, to be available for discussion concerning the day’s readings, a Bible Study on the lessons, the sermon, pastoral concerns, and general chit-chat of church things.

Fall programs and Christian Formation for all ages begin with the Church School Enrollment/Ministry Fair/Courtyard Picnic (what a title!) on Sunday, August 24 after the 10:00 service, where you can get information about all our fall offerings. Here are a few to keep in mind:

    PARENTS IN CONVERSATION meets weekly, beginning on August 31, with René Strause leading discussion on "When and Where Do You Hear God?"

    ADULT EDUCATION begins on September 7, with a number of different offerings and small groups offered each week. Watch for a fall schedule in the September Spirit, and in the Narthex.

    BRIDGES TO CONTEMPLATIVE LIVING with THOMAS MERTON, led by Margaret Krantz and Helen Jones, will meet on the 3rd Wednesday of every month, 6:30–7:40 p.m., beginning on September 17, and lasting for 8 sessions.

There are plenty of other offerings, too, including Bible Study (3 different times), Horizon Readers, Education for Ministry, Foyers, and LOTS more. Come find out about them and see what interests you at the Fair on August 24.
