We love to go to church at Saint Matthew because Padre Arturo makes the mass fun, his not just a priest his your friend always willing to listen and help whomever needs him. His the best Padre in Orange County.

I have been attending Saint Matt's for almost ten years now and before then had never encountered such a loving, warm, and welcoming community. Each Mass is captivating with its beautiful music, homily, and community celebrating together, all while upholding beloved Catholic traditions. All are welcome, just as Jesus would want. He would never turn anyone away. So why should any church?

SAINT MATTHEW ECUMENICAL CATHOLIC CHURCH is not Roman and this is it saving GRACE. This is the reason it feels that this church is closer to the original intentions of Jesus' teaching and is more authentic. The clue is in the word "ECUMENICAL."

6 reviews 5.0 star rating 12/2/2016 I spent my life in leadership in the United Methodist Church so I come to this review, and this church, from a different perspective--the perspective of a lifelong Protestant searching for a more intimate spiritual experience in worship. I started exploring Catholicism because I wanted to participate in Eucharist more often and, after much study, thought and prayer, came to a new found appreciation of Catholic devotion. This church is a valid expression of the ancient Catholic tradition and enjoys the fundamentals of historic Catholicism: Sacraments, Apostolic Succession and appreciation for 2000 years of theology and example as shown to us in the saints. The teaching is Biblical and sound. The social aspect is more liberal that what you would expect in a typical Saddleback or Calvary experience. Although historically and authentically Catholic, our roots are traced to Rome prior to 1870 and not currently in connection with Rome, but Catholic none the less. I am very blessed that my wife joined me on this faith journey. After attending mass at Roman Catholic churches we visited St. Matthew ECC one Sunday mass in January of 2015 and have been coming back every week since. We immediately found a new church home and never looked back. Join us and see!
