Our Mission and Message

Welcome to the Lutheran Church of St. Matthew Online Ministry!

 We are a congregation of over 500 baptized members.  We have been in Eau Claire since 1934 and we are a congregation of The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.

 Our Mission Statement: 

"Inviting People Whom God Loves to Come And Follow Jesus With Us!"

Our Vision At St. Matthew:

 To be a mission-focused church.

We Believe:

  • The Bible is the inspired Word of God and without error.

  • The Scriptures teach that all people are born with a sinful nature and need a Savior in order to have a right relationship with God.

  • God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to be the Savior of the world.

  • Forgiveness of sins and eternal life in heaven are received by faith in Christ alone.

  • We are called to tell others of the forgiveness and life that comes only by faith in Jesus Christ, and to show our faith by our love for one another.

  • We serve the East Hill of Eau Claire and the entire Chippewa Valley. We welcome every visitor with a smiling face and opportunity to fellowship and serve the Lord with us. Our children's and youth ministry, service and fellowship groups, and Hmong Mission attempts to reach every person from our community.

Reminders


We as a congregation are part of the "Transforming Congregations Network".  This is a synodical process that helps revitalize congregations to be ever more mission focused.  In the fall of 2009, we entered into a consultation that gave us five prescriptions to work on over the next couple of years, including vision, outward focus, making connections to our community, structure, and leadership development (The Consultation Report can be read under the "Documents and Records" link on this webpage.)  Pray with us and join us in working toward this growing mission focus as a congregation!
