Saint Matthew Catholic Church is a welcoming, small and cozy place to worship. The music director has incorporated newer styles of music but also kept a traditional feel. They have a great cry-room that enables you to attend mass with loud littles. The pastors are approachable, kind and understanding. I have seen a great mix of young families as well as senior citizens represented equally. My family loves this church, and I recommend it to anyone looking to celebrate Mass in the Franklin, TN area.

Very strange experience. Protestant music, altered prayers, foreign priest that’s accent makes it impossible to understand a word of his prayers or homily. God bless everyone but this wasn’t pleasant.

We absolutely love this church. The school portion is top notch. The community is welcoming. The church is natural and beautiful. And the music is the best I've heard regularly in a church. My wife, children, and I have been very happy going since we moved to Nashville.

Fine if you enjoy Protestant music, Michael W Smith, etc. Nothing Traditional here; rewritten Gloria, Psalms, Holy Holy, etc.
