There is no place like Home for the Holidays ! Landings is a lay ministry dedicated to welcoming back Catholics who have been away. Helping others re-engage with their Catholic faith. You’ve been away. Perhaps, angry, disillusioned, or feeling abandoned? Or maybe just distracted. Now is a great time to embrace your faith and re-engage. St. Matthew’s Catholic community welcomes you back to talk, pray, or simply dialogue .
Starting January 15, 2020 , Wednesdays at 7pm St. Matthew’s Parrish Center you will be able to dialogue with Fellow Catholics ,who are committed to this ministry, and perhaps experience an enriched faith for the New Year.

Featured Article
The Baptism of the Lord El Bautismo del Señor
Did you know that a Pew Research Poll revealed less than half of practicing Catholics believe you can have a personal relationship with God in Christ? Less than half! And these are the PRACTICING CATHOLICS. Which half are you in? Our faith teaches us that we have the “capacity” for this personal relationship with Jesus by virtue of our Baptism and the Holy Spirit. We choose whether to exercise that capacity by an “explicit” personal decision. Want to learn more about the power of your own Baptism and the Holy Spirit? Continue to watch here for more 2020 Vision resources and listen to homilies and announcements for opportunities to be formed in that loving relationship throughout the year.
¿Sabía que una encuesta de Pew Research reveló que menos de la mitad de los católicos practicantes creen que pueden tener una relación personal con Dios en Cristo? ¡Menos de la mitad! Y estos son los CATÓLICOS PRACTICANTES. ¿En qué mitad estás? Nuestra fe nos enseña que tenemos la "capacidad" para esta relación personal con Jesús en virtud de nuestro Bautismo y el Espíritu Santo. Elegimos si ejercer esa capacidad mediante una decisión personal "explícita".
¿Quieres aprender más sobre el poder de tu propio bautismo y el Espíritu Santo? Continúe mirando aquí para obtener más recursos de Visión 2020 y escuche homilías y anuncios sobre oportunidades para formarse en esa relación amorosa durante todo el año.

“Mental Health Wellness and the Church” Our Parish, the Archdiocese of San Francisco Mental Health Ministry Advisory Group, and the Pastoral Ministry Department invite you to an evening work-shop, “Mental Health Wellness and the Church - Reaching Out to Families Ex-periencing Mental Health Challenges”
Wednesday, February 5th, 2020 from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Croning Room, St. Matthew Catholic Church.
At the workshop, you will learn about the Mental Health Ministry Network being established by the Archdiocese of San Francisco, what it will mean for our parish to participate, and what ministry op-portunities will be available to parishioners.
Prayerfully supported by parish lay leaders and receiving professional care, families experiencing mental health challenges will find wholeness, and together, we’ll work to end the stigma that still endures when mental health is challenged.
The workshop is open to all parishioners and free of charge. For questions or for more information, contact the Parish Office at 650-344-7622.
