About this church
St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Charleston, West Virginia, has been part of the city since 1890 and worships at 36 Norwood Road. Sunday mornings offer two services of Holy Eucharist: an 8:00 a.m. Rite I service, spoken and in more traditional language (held in the Memorial Garden during summer when weather permits), and a 10:30 a.m. Rite II service with choral music and contemporary language. A YouTube livestream is linked from the website. The congregation worships with the Book of Common Prayer and describes the Eucharist as its central act of worship.
Adult Formation meets Sundays at 9:15 a.m. in Mathes Hall, the parish hall across Norwood Road. Children and youth have formation classes during the academic year, and children ages four to ten are invited to Children's Chapel during the 10:30 a.m. service. Youth ages ten to eighteen serve as acolytes. Childcare for ages four and under is provided in Mathes Hall from 10:15 a.m. until the end of services, and a children's area sits at the rear of the church. Parking is available on both sides of the church, reached from Bridge Road or Norwood Road, with extra spaces in the parish hall lot. Confirm times on the website.
