We, the people of St. Matthew parish are called by Baptism and sent forth by Christ to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ. in the spirit of faith, and community, we invite all people to join us in bringing people closer together and closer to God.
We accomplish this by:
Conforming our lives to the image of Christ through prayer and worship.
Contributing to the growth of the parish by spreading the Gospel message in our words and actions.
Being faithful stewards to St. Matthew, by sharing our time, talents and treasures.
Lending support to the leadership of our parish, working together to fulfill our parish mission.

The very first step in this process involves assessing our greatest strengths and opportunities, and that is where the Disciple Maker Index (DMI) comes in! The DMI is an important survey tool that invites you to reflect on your discipleship journey here at St. Matthew.
All responses will be confidential, and the parish will only receive information about the community as a whole.
Thank you for helping with this important project and please continue to pray for this intention and for the growth and protection of our parish.
Please see link below to access the Survey - as per request from the Archdiocese of Newark.
