OUR WELCOME TO YOU
St Matthew’s is an Anglican Catholic Church, meaning we are part of the broader Anglican tradition while maintaining the historic Catholic faith and practices of the early Church. We offer traditional Anglican worship, which follows the liturgy of A Prayer Book of Australia, including reverent liturgical worship, sacramental life, and classic hymns. Our services reflect the beauty and order of historic Christianity, rooted in Scripture, tradition, and reason.
God’s love and welcome is for everyone, so everyone is welcome at St Matthew’s.
In our worship we experience God’s hospitality through meeting together,
praying for each other and for God’s world,
and sharing in rituals that help to strengthen our spiritual lives.
As God welcomes us, we welcome you!

The Anglican Parish of St Matthew’s Cheltenham respectfully acknowledges the Boon Wurrung people as the traditional custodians of the land on which we gather to worship the God of peace and reconciliation.
The Boonwurrung, also spelt Bunurong or Bun wurrung, are an Aboriginal people of the Kulin nation, who are the traditional owners of the land from the Werribee River to Wilsons Promontory in the Australian state of Victoria. Their territory includes part of what is now the city and suburbs of Melbourne. They were called the Western Port or Port Philip tribe by the early settlers, and were in alliance with other tribes in the Kulin nation, having particularly strong ties to the Wurundjeri people.
