History
St. Matthew's is named after and follows the gospel of the evangelical saint Matthew, one of Jesus' twelve apostles and traditionally believed to be the author of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. His symbols are the tax collector and the alms box. Matthew himself was originally a tax collector, and as such is the patron saint of accountants, taxmen, and the city of Salerno.
Although it is commonly said that there are five cathedrals in Malton, this is something of an oversimplification. A cathedral is technically the seat of a bishop and as such there are only two true cathedrals in Malton: one of them, St. Matthew’s in Gibsonton, serves the Anglican communion while another serves the Catholic communion.
Currently home to The Imperium of Man, who use it as a place of worship for their God-Emperor.
Although not taking residence the Cult of the Unseen Ones consider this to be their Temple of the Unseen and hold it as one of their most sacred sites.
