Title
St James-St Matthews Evangelical Lutheran Church
Description
The history of St. James-St. Matthew's Evangelical Lutheran Church actually involves the saints of God from three different congregations -- St. James, St. Matthew's, and St. Andrews. Through the years, the lives of these faithful saints became intertwined and interconnected, and through their commitment and sacrifices and vision and determination, they have brought us to this place and to this time for which we now celebrate. While the following history will focus on the congregation of St. Matthew's in South Ozone Park, it would be incomplete and remiss if it didn't at least acknowledge and honor the contributions and legacy of each of these congregations.
Through it's 75 years of history, the congregation of St. James-St. Matthew's has gone through many different changes -- properties being purchased and sold; buildings being built and remodeled; pastors and leaders coming and going; demographics changing and populations shifting; congregations being reshaped into "co-operative parishes" and "yoked congregations" and "mergers;" and friends and loved ones passing on or moving away, and new friendships forming and growing.
But through it all, for 75 years, one thing has remained the same . . . God's constant presence and activity in this congregation and in this community. For 75 years, this congregation has been building on the rock of Christ, calling to those longing for life everlasting.
