Give to St. Matthias
The St. Matthias Fellowship is an outreach ministry of St. John’s Church. As a parish, St. John’s defines “community” in the broadest and deepest sense. We are committed to being active stewards of our gifts and to venturing beyond the doors of our church. The St. Matthias Fellowship is one fulfillment of that intention, and our mission goes hand in hand with St. John’s other local, national and international outreach efforts. We welcome the wider community into the work that we do.
In 2010, in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake in Haiti, St. John’s felt called to find a way to help. Members of the Outreach Committee carved a path to the Rev. Roger Bowen, a very active “retired” Episcopal priest who serves as Liaison to the Diocese of Haiti’s school partnership program, bringing Episcopal schools in Haiti and American institutions together. Reverend Bowen in turn connected us with Archdeacon Jeannot Joseph, who oversees multiple Episcopal parishes and their associated schools, many of which are located in remote and hard-to-access locations within the Central Plateau. Our discernment process together led us to St. Matthias, an Episcopal school and parish in Deslandes. In 2011, we agreed to become partners.
