Matthias' Matters


Where we highlight both what matters to the community of St. Matthias’ and the upcoming matters of St. Matthias’.



 
 

Vision Statement

St. Matthias’ is a Community of Grace, receiving God’s transforming love through joyful and meaningful worship, relating to Christ and one another through spiritual formation, fellowship, and pastoral care, and responding to the brokenness of our world through compassion, healing, and outreach.


In summary, we:

  • Receive God's Transforming Love
  • Relate to Christ and One Another
  • Respond to the Brokenness of Our World
 
 

Upcoming Events

Receive Relate Respond

The vision statement that has come out of our discernment process comes from these three words which will be the focus of both our stewardship season and sermon series in November.

Quilts in the Pews 
Wednesday, November 11th 10AM-4PM

Currahee Quilters invites the public to view quilts that will be donated to FAITH’s Power House Child Advocacy and Sexual Abuse Center. The viewing will take place on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at St. Matthias.'


Currahee Quilters is a group of new and experienced quilters who have shared their talents with the Stephens County community for nearly 40 years.

The group meets on the second Monday of each month at the Senior Center on Rose Lane. Meetings begin at noon, followed by the business meeting at 1:00 p.m.


For 30 years, F.A.I.T.H. has helped people in local communities cope with the impact of violence and abuse in their lives.

Community members are encouraged to stop by, enjoy the quilts, and support this meaningful effort to bring comfort and care to children and families served by FAITH.

Matthias in Mission for November is "Change a Child's Christmas"


We are blessed to share the love of Jesus again this year to support a brighter Christmas for local children who are in foster care and are lucky enough to have a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) to look out for their best interests in our court system, and/or have an incarcerated parent who has requested a special gift for their child. A link to the list of children will be available in the coming week.  

We ask you to support this worthy cause by selecting a child's name and purchasing a gift or by donating to this month's Matthias' in Mission. Last year we provided joy to well over 100 children! Please support Piecemakers again this year.
