We foster an open, welcoming, inclusive community.
“You are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and also members of the household of God.” – Ephesians 2:19
At our baptism, we promise to proclaim by word and example the Good News of God in Christ, seek and serve Christ in “all persons”, loving our neighbor as ourselves. And we commit ourselves to strive for justice and peace among “all people” and respect the dignity of “every human being” (The Book of Common Prayer, 305).
New York City has an extraordinarily diverse population. Saint Thomas Church is ideally located to reflect the diversity in the city.
People with Asian heritage make up around 14% of the population in the city and this ministry hopes to create opportunities to reach out with the Good News of Christ.
To join your Saint Thomas Pan-Asian friends for fellowship and events, simply complete our registration form. We have a monthly fellowship on the fourth Sunday of each month and collaboration programs with EAST (Episcopal Asian Supper Table) and EDNY (Episcopal Diocese of New York).
If you have any questions about what you find here, do not hesitate to reach out to our Associate for Pan-Asian Ministry, Mother Lee-Pae.
