Almighty God, whose blessed Son was led by the Spirit to be tempted of Satan; Make speed to help thy servants who are assaulted by manifold temptations; and, as thou knowest their several infirmities, let each one find thee mighty to save; through Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

9:00 a.m. | The Chancel

This service is especially suitable for children and families.

Active participation of children of all ages is both welcomed and encouraged in the Mass, whether sitting with their family, gathering on the Chancel step during the Homily, or leading worship as Acolytes, Lectors and singing in our Children’s Choir. The Noble Singers (5-12) is a robed

choir which follows the RSCM Voice for Life program as part of its twice weekly rehearsal times during term time. (Choristers are asked to commit to one rehearsal a week).

This Rite II Mass includes responsorial music and a short homily. The Mass lasts about 50 minutes and is followed by Coffee Hour, Sunday School and Adult Theology Classes at 10 am.

Email us if you would like to receive our weekly newsletter or for more information about Children and Family Ministry at Saint Thomas Church. If you would like your child/children to participate in the Children and Families Ministry at Saint Thomas, we invite you to fill out our registration form.
