St. Matthew's Anglican Church in Viking is celebrating its 90th anniversary with a special service on Sunday, September 21, at 2:00 pm. Refreshments will follow in the Legion Hall. All are welcome.

The parish of St. Matthew began as a mission in the early 20th Century. Once the church was built, the congregation served its rural community for the next 70 years. In 2023, the Viking Historical Society took over operations of the church building. For more about the history of the parish, its ministry, and its unique building, click here.
