This week we marked the completion Sunday School and Children’s Chapel for the summer with a combined service, awards, and a trip to a Trampoline park. Thank you to teachers & parents who help make Children’s Chapel and Sunday School vital links in the formation of our children in the Christian Faith, helping them to know that they are loved and that they are capable of changing the world!

On Saturday, 1 June, Members of St. Thomas’ attended a Diocesan workshop on “Beginning Spanish-language ministry within English-speaking congregations.” St. Thomas’ continues to dream about how to share the Good News with ever-wider swathes of our community.

We celebrated Baccalaureate Sunday with five graduating high school seniors (L to R): Kate Appleby-Wineberg, Matthew Owen, Hannah Gibbs, Rachael Owen, and Rachel Carpinelli. It was a proud (and bittersweet!) Sunday for St. Thomas’!

St. Thomas’ represented at the Diocesan Confirmations at Trinity Cathedral in Trenton. Congratulations Daniel and Aviva!

Last Sunday our “Prayer Practices” class finished up with a walk through the Labyrinth. Five of us braved the rain and puddles to enjoy contemplative walking and fresh air. You are invited to check out St. Thomas’ labyrinth, painted on the grass beside the Rectory, near the meditation garden & benches.

For the second Sunday of Easter (there are seven!) we celebrated with an Easter Pageant and an Egg Hunt! Thank you to Daniel Owen for organizing and directing the pageant, wherein the children told the story of Jesus’ Resurrection and Appearances to the Disciples!

For Holy Week 2019 St. Thomas’ brought out our best! A beautiful space, beautiful music, new fire, new life in Christ: all fitting things as we experienced together the passion and resurrection of our Lord. Holy Week and the Great Three Days are a reflection of St. Thomas’ as we work together to shine the light of Christ in our community!
