About St Matthew Lutheran Church
St. Matthew Lutheran Church was founded in Cascade, in 1970 as a mission congregation, as Pastor Jim Henning was assigned to make disciples in the area growing east of Grand Rapids. After spending our first few years in what is now the Forest Hills Schools administration building , a new building was constructed in the late 70’s with the new church and education wing added in 2003 and the multi-purpose Family Life Center added in 2013. Pastor Rob Appold is our church’s 4th full time pastor.Mission Statement: Our mission is to redeem, restore and release people to be everything that God intends them to be in Christ. A Family in Christ for All.
Vision Statement: Our vision is to create a 21st century community where people will experience the heart of God. We desire this place to be where people know and are known; love and are loved; serve and are served as followers of Jesus Christ who will stop at nothing to bring the world to experience the heart of the Father.
