Kickoff Sunday events @ st. thomas!


Kickoff Sunday @ st. thomas
Here’s what’s happening this Sunday!

Welcome, Karen!
Please join us after the 10:15 am service this Sunday, September 12, for a special coffee hour welcoming the Rev. Karen Haig, who joined the St. Thomas staff on September 1.


Sunday Forum
September 12
9:15 am

Our Sunday Forums resume with The State of St. Thomas. Father Lex Breckinridge will talk about about St. Thomas Church’s accomplishments in 2010 and goals for 2011. There will be plenty of time for questions and answers.


Childcare Hours Extended
beginning September 12
9:00 am on

Childcare will now be available every Sunday beginning at 9:00 a.m. This will make it easier for parents to attend the Sunday forum! Also, expect childcare for most special events this fall, including the newcomer series, capital stewardship campaign events, and our upcoming Wednesday night series (to begin in December).


Kids help make church happen!
Those in 3rd grade and up are invited to join the Acolytes, the Choristers, or the Youth Ensemble. Contact information for Acolytes: Jan Wang -- Choristers: Marion Anderson -- Youth Ensemble: Paul Johnson


Sunday School (pre-K - 5th grade)
September 12
10:15 am

Sunday School meets in three separate age groups each week during the first part of the 10:15 Eucharist: Preschool (pre-K/K) in St. Thomas School, Primary (grades 1-2) in the Conference Room, and Intermediate (grades 3-5) in the Parkside Room. Contact Josh Hosler for details, and to get onto the Sunday school email list.


The Seekers (grades 6-8)
September 12
10:15 am in the Library

Today, the Seekers begin their quest! Middle schoolers know that church contains many mysteries. Let’s seek them together. Our group is for youth in grades 6-8. Our first monthly meeting is today during the 10:15 church service, in the library. Tammy Waddell and Josh Hosler are technically in charge, but it’s your group. Is it Sunday school? Sort of … if you like Hogwarts on the weekend. Come try it out. Let’s see what we can uncover …


Kids’ Club (grades 3-5)
September 12
11:30 am in the Conference Room

Kids’ Club (grades 3-5) meets today after the 10:15 service. This “youth group for the younger set” meets monthly for fellowship and service projects. Lunch included! Come find us in the Conference Room.


Smile for the Camera!
In the coming weeks, you might see a photographer at your gathering or walking around outside or inside the St. Thomas buildings. This is perfectly OK! We are collecting pictures of the people, places, and activities here in preparation for the upcoming Capital Stewardship Campaign. If you do not want your picture used in any of the many publications and presentations under way, simply let the photographer know.
