The Last Sunday after Pentecost: Christ the King
The Last Sunday after Pentecost: Christ the King
Almighty and everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things in your well-beloved Son, the King of kings and Lord of lords: Mercifully grant that the peoples of the earth, divided and enslaved by sin, may be freed and brought together under his most gracious rule; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
This 45 minute service at the High Altar includes lessons, prayers, hymns, a sermon, and a Sung Eucharist. Music at this service is led by the Junior Choristers. For the 9am service only, worshipers are invited to sit in the choir stalls behind the choir on the chancel, or (as always) in the pews below on the floor of the nave.

‚ñ∫Today is Commitment Sunday, which completes the opening phase of the 2013 Every Member Canvass, through which we raise the money to pay for the annual operating expenses of the Church and Choir School. This morning Colin Fergus and Steve Kelly present pledge cards at the altar on behalf of everyone who has undertaken a financial commitment to Saint Thomas for the coming year. We are deeply grateful to everyone who has pledged, and we humbly give thanks to God whose Providence sustains us all. Read more about the EMC here and consider making a pledge online. We ask everyone who worships with us, including the many thousands from around the globe who have listened to at least one webcast, to consider making a pledge in support of our mission.Thank you.
