Weekly Events at St. Thomas

Hello Everyone,


Here’s your weekly reminder of all the programs, services and events at St. Thomas during the next several days. Please take particular notice of all events in colored print.

BLESSING OF A PREGNANT WOMAN

St. Thomas has a number of growing families,
therefore we wish to celebrate the giver of life with
the “Blessing of a Pregnant Woman” offered today,
February 5th at any of our four Sunday services. An announcement will be
made during each service to come up for a prayer of blessing.


SOUPER BOWL OF CARING

Souper Bowl of Caring is an event presented by the Youth Group in effort to fight hunger and poverty in our local community. The Youth will be collecting can-goods until February 5th as well as financial contributions on February 5th during the 8 and 10 am. services. All proceeds will go to a charity chosen by the Youth Group. Thank you in advance for your support.

Family Night for Beacon House

We would like to help Beacon House by providing a nice meal with snacks for
Super Bowl Sunday. Our Sunday School team will be
planning a menu and families are asked to bring items to share.

The kids will be cooking in the kitchen during some of our Sunday School meetings to
 help prepare treats to bring for our visits.

This is a great opportunity to focus on all we have to be thankful for and do something
very worthwhile for our neighbors downtown.

Look for sign up sheets in the Portico and Parish Hall
