Masks are now mandatory for all Masses at St. Matthew (State Law as of 1 Aug 2020). Those who plan on attending Mass on Saturday evening or Sunday, please bring your own mask if you have one.  You can bring your own personal hand sanitizer, if you feel the need to.  Masks and hand sanitizer will also be available at the entrances to church.  Plan on arriving 10 to 15 minutes earlier than usual, since seating people will probably take longer than usual.

On July 19 we had the going-away party and parade for Fr. Peter. Thank God for a wonderful day for the party, and thank you to all of the parishioners who helped make it happen. A wonderful time was had by all!

Great news! Bishop Callahan has reinstated public daily Masses. Just as for weekend Masses, attendance is limited to 25% (120 people for our church). Those not from the same household still need to maintain 6-feet distance in church. The wearing of masks is still encouraged in church. The pews also will be sanitized after each Mass.

Congratulations to the 15 young people from our parish who received the Sacrament of Confirmation at the parish on June 27!

Due to COVID-19 we will not have an in-person Vacation Bible School at St. Matt's this summer. For parents who still want to offer VBS to their children, check out a new virtual VBS from Blessed Is She by clicking the title above. It is fun, easy, and can be started any week during the summer!

Beginning July 30, Fr. Peter will begin a new assignment as the associate pastor at St. Mary's Parish in Altoona, WI, and St. Raymond's Parish in Fall Creek, WI. He also will serve as the chaplain at Regis High School and Middle School in Eau Claire. That same day, our parish will welcome Fr. Juan Pedro Roblez Balthasar as the new associate pastor here at St. Matt's. Fr. Juan Pedro is currently in residence at the Cathedral in La Crosse. Fr. Juan Pedro and Fr. Peter were ordained in the same ordination class back in 2017.

Beginning Monday, June 15, the Adoration schedule will change to Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9am-5pm. Church is open the other days of the week for prayer.

Congratulations to the 26 young people who made their 1st Holy Communions at the parish May 31 and June 7! May you always stay close to Jesus in the Eucharist who loves you so much!

Click here to sign-up for Mass. Those without Internet access can call the parish office and ask to speak to Barb, Fr. Peter or Fr. Bob for assistance with completing the sign-up form. You can still come to Mass, if you don't sign up before the weekend. One of the ushers will sign you in upon your arrival. Thank you for your cooperation, and we look forward to seeing you at Mass!
