We worship together on Sunday at 9 a.m. in person and online. We recognize two sacraments: Baptism and the Eucharist (Holy Communion), and we celebrate the latter every Sunday. Our services also include scripture readings, a sermon, prayers, music, and thanksgiving for our gifts. You can stream on YouTube or contact us for the Zoom link!

Join us virtually on Zoom, Wednesdays at 7 p.m. for Bible Study. Each week, we discuss the upcoming texts for the coming Sunday. The discussions have been insightful, joyful, and exciting! All are welcome - members and friends of St. Matthew and First Trinity, as well as first-time visitors.

St. Matthew, First Trinity, and the Swahili Lutheran Church co-host a monthly “Holy Play” time for the "littlest" Christians on Saturdays. The program lasts around an hour and includes music, movement, crafts, and a central Bible lesson.

We partner with First Trinity Lutheran to offer a weekly Sunday school and a confirmation program. Currently we are using the Whirl curriculum for Sunday School through Augsburg Fortress.

We are a group of young adults in D.C. who are excited to be in community with one another growing in God's grace. We have Happy Hour meet-ups, annual retreats, game nights, and opportunities throughout the year to serve and be a part of the greater congregation.

Members of St. Matthew and First Trinity congregations get together every quarter for a lunch meet up at a restaurant in the D.C. Metro Area.

Every summer in partnership with First Trinity we chose 1-2 community books related to spiritual growth and community involvement. Past authors have included Rachel Held Evans, Fr. Gregory Boyle, and Walter Brueggemann. In addition to discussing the books together, community outings have been held to engage with the books’ topics or themes.
