Partners in Mission

St. Matthews Maryland is supported by the Alpha and Omega Cluster of United Churches in Winnipeg Presbytery and the St. Matthews Maryland Anglican Consortium (Diocese of Rupert’s Land).

These congregations are committed to praying for our work and our guests.  They raise awareness about the Ministry and our needs and contribute generously.  Volunteers from many of our partner churches come to the drop-in on a rotating basis to serve as hospitality volunteers and to lead Nutrition Bingo and other activities.  Our Emergency Food Cupboard is primarily stocked by the donations from these supporting congregations.

Our Partners: Augustine United Church, Charleswood United Church, Crescent Fort Rouge United Church, Crestview United Church, Fort Garry United Church,  Kirkfield United Church, St. Charles – Headingley United Church, St. Paul’s (Fort Garry) Anglican Church, St. Peter’s Anglican Church, St. Mary Magdalene Anglican Church,  St. Mary’s (Charleswood) Anglican Church, St. Matthew’s Anglican Church, Silver Heights United Church, Sturgeon Creek United Church.

Project Peacemakers and Oak Table Community Ministry are also members of the Alpha and Omega Cluster.

Steady financial support, donations of food and periodic support for special events comes from a wider circle of congregations, including Grain of Wheat, St. Andrew’s (Woodhaven) Anglican Church, St. Anne’s Anglican Church, St. Francis Anglican Church, St. Martin’s Anglican Church.

WestEnd Commons

In 2014, WestEnd Commons became home to 26 families.  Formerly St. Matthew’s Anglican Church, the ground and upper floors were converted to housing when the building was sold to a not for profit housing society.  A congregational space was retained on the ground floor.  The Neighbourhood Resource Centre, on the lower level, is home to our ministry as well as several agencies that also serve the neighbourhood.  From time to time, we partner with WestEnd Commons and others in the building on special projects.
