About
St Matthews is a vibrant Anglican church in the heart of Manly on Sydney’s sunny northern beaches.
Our vision is to grow God’s Church through the Gospel.
What does it mean for us to be growing God’s Church through the Gospel?
WORSHIP
Worship means giving God the praise and glory that he deserves. This includes music and our lives.
NEXT GEN
Our kids and youth programmes focus on raising up the next generation of Christian believers and leaders.
MISSION
Our message is the good news of Jesus. That’s why we partner with mission organisations.
CARE
Church means people, and so caring for our people and our community is central to who we are.
GROWTH
Healthy things grow. Our vision is to see more people reached with the good news of Jesus.
What does that look like at ground level?
