Finding Your Way around
Sanctuary
This is our main place of worship. Services occur every Sunday at 7:30, 9:00 and 11:00 AM. Most funerals and weddings also occur in this space unless our Chapel is requested for a more intimate setting. We also host concerts throughout the year and the sanctuary is available as a recital venue. A detailed map can be found below.
SMEC Chapel
The Saint Matthew’s Episcopal Church Chapel (SMEC Chapel) began construction on April 4, 1958 and was the primary place of worship before the new sanctuary was consecrated in 2018. The SMEC Chapel offers a smaller, intimate setting and continues to be used for Children’s Chapel, adult education classes and Wednesday noon prayer. Funerals and private ceremonies may be held here for a more intimate setting.

Stained Glass
Our campus is filled with heart warming art, inside and out. Several windows in the SMEC chapel are adorned with scenes from the bible and it is virtually impossible to miss the breathtaking stained glass that brings to life the north side of our sanctuary.
