Children and Family Ministries

Sunday School

St Thomas’ offers age-appropriate Sunday School classes for our children. All classes meet from 11:15-12:15pm in the Parish House most Sundays and are taught by our trained, Safe Church-certified volunteer parishioners. Bring your children for Christian formation and fellowship they can’t get elsewhere. All are welcome and registration is not required.

Parents are welcome to attend the weekly Adult Forum in MacColl Auditorium or sit for a casual coffee hour in Thayer Lounge.

Ages 4 through 5th grade meet in the Beck Room with our Godly Play trained teachers. Godly Play® practice teaches us to listen for God and to make authentic and creative responses to God’s call in our lives. This creative, imaginative approach to Christian formation and spiritual guidance with a Montessori foundation values process, openness, discovery, community and relationships.

Several times a year, our children lead the 10am worship, participating as ushers, readers, choristers, acolytes and greeters.

We also offer Children’s Chapel once a month that takes place during the 10am sermon.

Contact us for dates or to sign up your child for a family service worship.

St. Thomas’ offers many opportunities throughout the year for families to participate in service projects and social events.
