Our Mission

 St. Matthew’s was established as a Mission on August 1, 1943 in the Garden Oaks Civic Club Building on 34th Street. The Mission was officially organized on August 29, 1943 as Garden Oaks Methodist Church, where 80 people were received into membership. In 1947, the congregation voted to change the name to St. Matthew’s Methodist Church and moved from the Civic Club Building to our  current location.
