Welcome to St. Thomas' Episcopal Church
3602 Hawthorne Avenue, Richmond, Virginia 23222
Children are a vital part of life at St. Thomas'. During the traditional school year, St. Thomas' offers Sunday School at 10:30 am upstairs in the Sunday School Classrooms on first, second, and third Sundays. Children return to worship after the peace to have communion with their families. On fourth and fifth Sundays we don't have Sunday School, and one of the clergy will offer a children's sermon during the 10:30 service. Children can also look forward to the activities throughout the year at St. Thomas', such as the Alleluia Egg Hunt, Parish Retreat to Shrine Mont, Advent Adventure, and Lenten Activities.
During Worship
We welcome infants and children of any age to remain with their family during the entire worship service. There are children's activities and crayons available from the usher. If your child needs to leave the service for any reason, we ask that they be escorted by an adult.
Children & Communion
The Episcopal Church encourages full participation in our liturgy, and children of all ages are welcome to communion.
Nursery
We offer a staffed nursery during our 10:30 am Sunday morning worship service. It is located upstairs and is offered for infants and toddlers ages 0 to 5 years old. Parents must sign their child in and out.
Acolyte - 3rd Grade and older
Children can help lead worship by assisting as acolytes. If your child is interested in becoming an Acolyte, please talk to Rev. Dale.
