Food Drive for Bear Pantry

We are currently collecting special dietary food items for the UCA Bear Food Pantry. Gluten-free, dairy-free, and nut-free items are especially needed to assist members of the UCA community with food intolerances. Click here for a pdf list of suggested items. Thank you for your support!

New Members Received on July 28, 2024

We thank the Lord that He blessed our congregation with twelve new members who were officially received on Sunday, July 28, 2024. Most of these individuals are new arrivals to the Conway area. Seven transferred from other LCMS congregations, three by profession of faith, and two as adult confirmands. May God bless and keep all of you as you walk together with us at St. Matthew!

Prayer Vigil - Weds, July 31

You are invited to St. Matthew on Weds, July 31 for another Prayer Vigil opportunity. This will be held in the church sanctuary from 5:00-7:00pm in an "open house" format. Attendees can come and pray for a few minutes, an hour, or whatever is best for you. Materials to help guide your prayers will be provided for those who would like to use them. We invite you to come and pray for your needs, your loved ones, our congregation, our country, or however God's Spirit leads you in your prayers.

Bible Collection

Do you have any extra Bibles that you'd like to donate to people around the world who are hungry for the Word of God? This summer, a lay member of St. Matthew is organizing a Bible collection. Donations can be dropped off in the church fellowship hall. The Bibles will be shipped to Love Packages, a non-denominational organization that sends English language Christian literature around the world. The founder of Love Packages says that they can "never, ever, get enough Bibles." Check out their website or contact the church office if you have questions.
