Experiencing Christmas

Dec 1 - 24

This Advent and Christmas season St. Thomas will experience Christmas through our senses – sight, sound, taste, and touch. Our children, youth, and adults are all sharing these experiences together in the recognition that in this wonderful season we recognize something new and different is happening, that Christmas is often experienced through our senses. What’s more, we know that God came to us as flesh and bone in Jesus Christ and through his senses experienced everything we experience. In Matt Rawle’s book Experiencing Christmas he writes “Christmas is the celebration that God now has senses. God put on flesh in the person of Jesus to experience and redeem humanity in a unique and radical way.” Join us this Advent season to experience Christmas together.

Worship at St. Thomas

We welcome you to become a part of God's ministry in our midst. We invite all people and especially seek to provide a church home for those who haven't found a place where their faith can grow and their gifts are shared for God's glory.

Sunday Worship Times:

9:00 AM - Traditional Service with Hymns, Organ, and Piano
11:00 AM - Contemporary Service with Praise Band

A children’s message is provided weekly at the Contemporary Service and the sacrament of Holy Communion is offered on the first Sunday of each month.

Worship services are offered in-person and via livestream via our website and through the St. Thomas Facebook page at the times noted above. These options help to ensure the health and well-being of our community.

OUR MISSION

We exist to REACH, NOURISH, and SERVE the community so all may

experience healing and new life through Jesus Christ.
