As we continue our journey through the Easter season, we are reminded that true discipleship means living our faith through action. Stewardship is our grateful response to God s blessings. This Easter, let us renew our commitment to be good stewards, sharing the joy of the Resurrection through generous hearts and willing hands..

Jesus s love is unconditional; our love usually comes with strings attached. It is easy to love someone when they love you back. But it takes mercy and compassion to love someone when you feel unappreciated, feel used or feel like your opinion doesn t matter. It takes courage and the grace of God to love my neighbor ” when they may be someone you don t like, someone you don t know, or someone that doesn t look like you.

When you register in the parish, come to mass on Sundays and participate in parish activities, you are practicing your faith and are considered an active parishioner. When you use the offertory envelops or online giving, you are showing your commitment in supporting your parish, as well as creating a record of your active presence in the community. Registration is required for receiving any parish official document, such as eligibility certificates to be godparents, permits to celebrate sacraments in other churches, school verification for children, or any other letter for legal purposes. Registration for at least six months is required for the celebration of sacraments.

Registration forms are available online or by calling the parish office (954) 458-1590.

Thanks for becoming a member of our community of St. Matthew in Hallandale Beach.
