Pastor Column
Keeping St. Matthew a Beautiful Place
The last two years have been a very busy and productive time in the effort to keep the facilities at St. Matthew a beautiful
and a safe place for worship. In review, in 2017 we were able to replace all of the exterior lighting with updated LED fix-
tures. We had many fixtures, that due to time, burned out and were not working. Not only did we replace the fixtures, but
replaced four poles. One had fallen down in a wind storm, (fortunately no one was hurt and three were badly rusted that it
truly was a miracle that the wind did not cause them to fall). The timers were also replaced with Solar Timers and once they
were set, they will automatically correct to the time changes and for sunrise-sunset times. Cost= $50,000.00
The emergency lighting system was inspected and repaired. Original bids were to replace with a digital system at a cost of
$40,000.00. We opted to inspect and repair for $6,000.00
In 2018, we recognized that due to the aging of our facilities and size, we needed to form a Maintenance Ministry. As any
property owner knows, maintenance rather than “crisis” repair is the answer. Six Parishioners (including Fr. Hieu) agreed
to partake in this ministry. Each one was assigned an area to review and they meet quarterly and discuss their findings.
During the year of 2018, we had many issues. The parking lot, due to neglect was posing a safety hazard and was at a stage
of massive repair. Cost $122,000.00. But before we could accomplish this, we had 13 Pine trees that were causing root
damage to the parking lot that had to be removed first. Cost $14,000.00.
Kitchen upgrades. The appliances were replaced with commercial grade appliances. New shelving and work stations were
installed. Cabinet door hinges had to be replaced. Also, a very deep cleaning was performed. Cost = $7,300.00.
Since December 1, 2018, we have had a few crisis problems.
Landscape: Four trees in the parking lot have died due to disease plus one was planted too close to the Church building,
causing damage. Estimate as of the day of this writing to remove and replace $2,060.00. There are sixty-seven trees in the
parking lot that are all diseased and need to be trimmed. Estimate $4,310.00.
Office Building: Two electrical problems and we were citied by the Fire Department. One GFI Breaker not working. Cost
to repair $150.00. A floor receptacle has to be moved four feet to meet code. Estimated cost $700.00. The heater does not
work. We are waiting for estimates. Hopefully it can be repaired and not replaced.
Class Rooms: All the interior door handles needed to be replaced due to not working. Cost $1,096.00
Parish Center: After the last rain storm, we have found three areas of leaks in the roof. We are waiting for estimates. The
entrance door was not working properly. Cost $100.00
Church Building: During the last rain storm, leaks in the roof, over the restrooms, were detected. Cost to repair $1,534.00.
Termite damage to the ceiling and four exterior trim boards were discovered. Blessedly, no structural damage. Estimate to
repair $1,085.00.
We have located nine areas in the sidewalks that pose a serious tripping hazard. It appears that tree roots have caused the
concrete to buckle. Some can be ground flat and some need to be replaced. Working on quotes now.
All of the steel railings around the property show a lot of rusting. Need to sandblast and repaint. Will be looking for
quotes in the spring.
All of the wood trim on Church, Parish Center and Courtyard needs to be painted. Will look for quotes in the spring.
Rectory: No damaged or crises maintenance noted. But we are forecasting $10,000.00 over the course of the year.
So why this report today? The Maintenance Ministry regards all of these with great concern. They consult with at least
three contractors for appointments and quotes. This report does not include the many hours of repairs they do individually at
no cost to the Parish. What we are asking for is if any Parishioner is associated with any firm that does roofing, electrical,
plumbing, concrete or asphalt please call the office to make it known to us. We need consultants and advisors.
So, how has this been made possible? Due to the generosity of the St. Matthew Family, in weekly contributions, DDF
pledges and individual gifts, the funds have been made available to accomplish all of the above. The Diocese of San Ber-
nardino does not fund these projects. It all hinges on your support.
Thanks to the family of St. Matthew who keeps our Parish a beautiful and safe place to worship, study and be a family.

Carta de Nuestro Pastor
Mantener a San Mateo un lugar hermoso
Los últimos dos años han sido un tiempo muy ocupado y productivo en el esfuerzo por mantener las instalaciones en San Mateo como
lugar hermoso y seguro para la adoración. En resumen, en el 2017 pudimos reemplazar toda la iluminación exterior con luminarias LED
actualizadas. Teníamos muchos accesorios que, debido al tiempo, se quemaron y no funcionaban. No solo reemplazamos los accesorios,
sino que también reemplazamos cuatro postes de luz. Uno se había caído en una tormenta de viento (afortunadamente, nadie resultó
herido y tres estaban muy oxidados porque lo que realmente fue un milagro que el viento no los hiciera caer). Los relojes automáticos
también se reemplazaron con relojes solares y una vez que se configuraron, se corregirán automáticamente a los cambios de hora y para
los horarios de amanecer y atardecer. Costo = $ 50,000.00
El sistema de iluminación de emergencia fue inspeccionado y reparado. Las ofertas originales eran para reemplazar con un sistema digi-
tal a un costo de $ 40,000.00. Optamos por inspeccionar y reparar por $ 6,000.00
En el 2018, reconocimos que debido al envejecimiento de nuestras instalaciones y al tamaño de estas, necesitábamos formar un Ministe-
rio de Mantenimiento. Como sabe cualquier propietario, es mejor, la reparación y el mantenimiento en lugar que una reparación por
"emergencia". Seis feligreses (incluido el Padre Hieu) acordaron participar en este ministerio. A cada una se le asignó un área para revi-
sar y se reúnen trimestralmente y discuten sus hallazgos.
Durante el año de 2018, tuvimos muchos problemas. El estacionamiento, debido a la negligencia, representaba un peligro para la seguri-
dad y se encontraba en necesidad de reparación masiva, con un costo de $ 122,000.00. Pero antes de que pudiéramos lograr esto, tenía-
mos 13 árboles que estaban causando daños con sus raíces al estacionamiento que debían eliminar primero.
Con un costo de $ 14,000.00.
Modernización de la cocina. Los aparatos electrodomésticos fueron reemplazados por electrodomésticos de calidad comercial. Se insta-
laron nuevas estanterías y estaciones de trabajo. Las bisagras de las puertas de los gabinetes tuvieron que ser reemplazadas. Además, se
realizó una limpieza muy profunda. Costo = $ 7,300.00.
Desde el 1 de diciembre de 2018, hemos tenido pocos problemas de emergencia.
Los jardines alrededor de la Iglesia: cuatro árboles en el estacionamiento murieron debido a una enfermedad, más uno se plantó dema-
siado cerca del edificio de la Iglesia, causando daños. Calcule a partir del día de este escrito que para eliminar y reemplazar el costo
seria de $ 2,060.00. Hay sesenta y siete árboles en el estacionamiento que están todos enfermos y necesitan ser podados con un estima-
do de $ 4,310.00.
Edificio de oficinas: Tuvimos dos problemas eléctricos y fuimos citados por el Departamento de Bomberos. Un interruptor automatico
no funciona. Costo para reparar $ 150.00. Un receptáculo de piso debe moverse cuatro pies para cumplir con el código. Costo estimado
$ 700.00 El calentador no funciona. Estamos a la espera del estimado. Esperemos que pueda ser reparado y no reemplazado.
Salones de clase: todas las manijas interiores de las puertas debían ser reemplazadas debido a que no funcionaban. Costo $ 1,096.00
Centro Parroquial: Después de la última tormenta de lluvia, hemos encontrado tres áreas con goteras en el techo. Estamos a la espera del
presupuesto. La puerta de la entrada no funcionaba correctamente. La reparación tuvo un costo $ 100.00.
Edificio de la Iglesia: Durante la última tormenta de lluvia, se detectaron goteras en el techo, sobre los baños. Costo para reparar $
1,534.00. Se descubrieron daños de termitas en el techo y cuatro tableros exteriores. Afortunadamente, no hay daños estructurales. Esti-
mado para reparar $ 1,085.00.
Hemos localizado nueve áreas en las aceras que representan un serio peligro de tropiezo. Parece que las raíces de los árboles han hecho
que el concreto se levante. Algunas pueden ser aplanadas y otras necesitan ser reemplazadas. Me encuentro trabajando en conseguir
cuotas ahora.
Todas las barandillas de acero alrededor de la propiedad muestran mucha oxidación y necesita ser lijadas y repintadas. Estaremos bus-
cando presupuestos en la primavera.
Todos la madera en la Iglesia, el Centro Parroquial y el Patio deben pintarse. Pediremos cotizaciones en la primavera.
Rectoría: Sin daños ni mantenimiento de emergencia. Pero estamos pronosticando $ 10,000.00 a lo largo del año.
Entonces, ¿por qué este informe hoy? El Ministerio de Mantenimiento considera todo esto con gran preocupación. Consultan cuando
menos con tres contratistas para obtener el mejor presupuesto. Este informe no incluye las muchas horas de reparaciones que se realizan
individualmente sin costo para la parroquia. Lo que pedimos es si algún feligrés está asociado con alguna empresa que realice techos,
electricidad, plomería, concreto o asfalto, llame a la oficina para informarnos de ello. Necesitamos consultores y asesores.
Entonces, ¿cómo ha sido posible esto? Gracias a la generosidad de las Familias de San Mateo, con sus contribuciones semanales, com-
promisos del DDF y donaciones individuales, los fondos se han puesto a disposición para cumplir con todo lo anterior. La Diócesis de
San Bernardino no financia estos proyectos. Todo depende de su apoyo.
Gracias a la familia de San Mateo que mantiene a nuestra parroquia como un lugar hermoso y seguro para adorar, estudiar y ser una
familia.
Mark Frasier
