St. Matthew’s is a community of disciples and we are on a journey together. We are called to participate in God’s mission. We learn and dream, worship and pray, laugh, cry and serve together. St. Matt’s is a place where we learn about God and learn to be disciples. It’s a place to call home. A place to belong. Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, you are welcome.

At St. Matthew’s, we are committed to cultivating a faith-filled space that warmly welcomes all, as we seek to grow in our knowledge, love and pursuit of Jesus and his way, together. We believe our Children and Youth, rooted in Christ, are equipped to start leaving their mark in our communities and across the world.

“For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you” (1 Chronicles 29:14, NRSV)

Many Episcopalians know this line of scripture because we say it in our Eucharistic liturgy every week. It reflects our deepest understanding of thanksgiving and stewardship – God gives us everything! When we give to God, others, and the church, we are really giving back what is originally a gift from God. We are all stewards of the resources, abilities, and opportunities that God has entrusted to our care, and s caretakers of these gifts, we support our church and God’s mission by using our time, our skills, and our financial resources.

A pledge is a spiritual promise, a commitment to the life of a faith community, a commitment to which God calls each one of us. Pledges help with orderly financial planning and they make possible all the programming and fellowship that we enjoy together, including: children’s and youth ministries, music, building operations and maintenance, clergy and staff compensation, mission engagement, fellowship, and much more. YOU are the heart of St. Matthew’s. Your generous gift makes all of our programming possible.

It is the tradition of St. Matthew’s to use fresh flowers at our altar every Sunday for worship as well as other special occasions. Prepared by our Flower Guild, you may sponsor the flowers on a date of your choosing in memory of a loved one, in thanksgiving, or other purpose for a suggested donation of $75. Those named in memory or in thanksgiving are also included in the prayers of the people on that Sunday. Following worship, our Petal Pushers deliver the flowers to members or friends of St. Matthew’s, bringing our prayers from our altar to their home.

How to Set Up Amazon Smile

Title III, Canon 9, Section 6(b6), of the Constitution and Canons of the Episcopal Church (2015) is generally interpreted to mean that, at a minimum of one Sunday a month, the loose offering at the Holy Eucharist is designated for the clergy discretionary fund. Congregations may wish to set aside a budgeted amount for the discretionary fund in addition to or as a substitute for the above method. Congregations may designate that all fees or gifts received for weddings, funerals, and baptisms are contributed to the discretionary fund. Individuals may also contribute to the fund with occasional gifts.

The Rev. Dr. Tommy Watson, Jr. began serving at St. Matthew’s in August of 2024.

I am a native of Leesville, SC. My bachelors, masters, and doctoral degrees are all in Vocal Performance, and I have a post Doctoral Certificate in Contemporary Commercial Vocal Pedagogy. Prior to my call to ordained ministry in 2019, I taught at the collegiate level for five years. Additionally, I was a tenured Associate Professor of Music at the South Carolina School of the Arts at Anderson University for twenty years. I founded and directed the Opera Workshop there, taught classical and non-classical voice lessons, Vocal Pedagogy, Western Music History, World Musics History, Music Theory, Lyric Diction for Singers, vocal coached musicals, and taught Aesthetics. Concurrently, I sang professionally as a classical baritone/bass soloist, directed music at churches, and did mission work in West Africa and India while employed at AU. After resigning my tenured post in May 2021, my studies at Berkeley Divinity School at Yale began that August.

Upon graduating from Berkeley in May 2024, and being ordained a Deacon two weeks later, I actively discerned where Almighty God would call me next. After having applied for clergy positions across the country, including St. Matt’s, progressively, it became clear that I just might be called here. After having met with Marissa, Nancy, Pam, and Anne, and they having shared their vision, hopes, and dreams for St. Matt’s, the sum of those conversations helped me to discern that I was indeed being called here; to share in the faithful aspirations of people who love their parish community. After much discernment on our collective parts, I have been formally called by the Rector, with the Vestry and Bishop concurring, to St. Matt’s. I couldn’t be happier! I look forward to getting to know all of you, praying and worshipping with you, assisting with the sacraments, working with the children and their families, getting acquainted with people in Wilton, and to discern with you how Almighty God is calling us to participate in the reconciliatory mission of God’s redeeming love in the world.
