St. Matthew’s Episcopal School is “making excellent progress” in securing alternate space for classes after buildings were destroyed in the Palisades fire, school leaders say, and a school chapel is planned for the morning of Jan. 16 at St. Augustine by-the-Sea Episcopal Church, Santa Monica.
The Santa Monica congregation — whose own church was built after a 1966 fire destroyed its previous sanctuary — also is welcoming St. Matthew’s parishioners for Sunday services each week until they are able to return to their landmark, architecturally significant church that was spared in the Palisades fire.
Coverage of the Jan. 12 joint service is here.
School officials will announce interim campus site location details as they become available.
