Obispo Mathew Sidney Metzger (1902 - 1986) fue un prelado estadounidense de la Iglesia Católica Romana, que sirvió como obispo de El Paso desde 1942 hasta 1978. Su mayor desafío al hacerse cargo de la Diócesis de El Paso era restaurar la estabilidad financiera de la diócesis a la vez que añadía nuevas parroquias, escuelas y ministerios para servir al creciente número de católicos. Los muchos logros del obispo Metzger incluyeron el establecimiento de Seminario St. Charles Borromeo para animar a los nativos de El Paso a tomar el sacerdocio, la implementación del Concilio Vaticano II, la creación del Programa de Diaconado Permanente de la Diócesis, y su fuerte apoyo de la justicia social y los derechos de la gente trabajadora. En 1940, St. Mary's otorgo al obispo Metzger un título honorario de Doctorado en Leyes. Al final de la administración del obispo Metzger de la Diócesis durante 36 años, el crédito de la diócesis era excelente, las misiones dispersas y necesitadas de los primeros días habían llegado a ser parroquias, iglesias nuevas, escuelas, hospitales y conventos bien atendidos que habían sido construidos para satisfacer las necesidades de una población creciente. La Diócesis ahora era capaz de reclutar y entrenar a sus propios sacerdotes, y los principios católicos de justicia social fueron firmemente arraigadas en los ministerios y programas de la Diócesis de El Paso.
