Come, discover, and share the vibrant life of The Episcopal Church of Saints Andrew and Matthew, located in the heart of downtown Wilmington. Our congregation was formed from the merger of two historic congregations that had been racially separated. We now draw from the riches of our diverse heritages in celebrative liturgy and music, innovative programming, and a deep involvement in the life of our community. We are seeking to love one another as Christ loves us, and to ground our ministries in witness to God's healing justice and reconciling love.
Explore this website to learn more about us. Better still, come for a personal visit!

Traces of the Trade: two Delaware screenings and discussions of the film, September 12 & 13. In Traces of the Trade, Producer/Director Katrina Browne tells the story of her forefathers, the largest slave-trading family in U.S. history. Given the myth that the South is solely responsible for slavery, viewers will be surprised to learn that Browne's ancestors were Northerners. From 1769 to 1820, the DeWolf family (a historic northern Episcopal family) trafficked in human beings. They sailed their ships from Bristol, Rhode Island, to West Africa with rum to trade for African men, women and children. The Diocesan Committee on Slavery in Delaware will show the film on September 12, 6:30 p.m. at Christ Church, Dover and September 13, 10:00 a.m. at Christ Church, Christiana Hundred. Members of the DeWolf family will be with us to lead the discussion afterwards. To register, click here to send an email to Cynde Bimbi. If you would like to a flyer to post, click here.
