Saint Thomas is a small, rural church incorporated in 1892 as a parish of the worldwide Anglican communion. The cornerstone was laid in 1893 and the first service was held in 1894. It has always been a small parish, rarely counting more than thirty households in its membership.
We welcome all ages to our church but currently have no specific activities for youth. St. Thomas is an inclusive parish. We have a great appreciation for diversity of life, experience, and vision.
We follow the 1979 edition of the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer. Music is an important part of our service. The congregation is our choir.
