We are living in a time of uncertainty and stress, and it is perfectly natural for us to feel the anxiety prevalent today. But we are also finding ways to be the community of love and support that we are called to be. Pray for each other, reach out if you need help; call us. Know that your church staff is praying for you on a daily basis; pray for us as well. Join us in the offerings we have, such as the YouTube videos and Zoom calls. We are with you, and God is with us all. May God’s peace be with you.
Since 1907 St. Thomas' has been a home for worship, service, and fellowship in Richmond. We are a place of simple hospitality, and seek to share our communal life with our church, our community, and those in need.
Everyone is welcome.
