Groups at St. Thomas

St. Thomas Anglican Church gathers for worship regularly on Sundays

We also meet throughout the week for formation in community

These are the opportunities for Spring 2025.

About Our Spring Community Groups, Book Studies, and More

This spring, our community groups will dive into an eight-week study featuring the film series Godspeed by Matt Canlis. Together, we’ll explore what it means to slow down, be present, and connect deeply with God and one another. Matt, who began his ministry at a parish church in Scotland,  now leads an ACNA church in the pacific north west. You can learn more about Godspeed by visiting livegodspeed.org/home. 

Groups will start the week of February 16th and run for 9 weeks. 

The study will conclude before Holy Week, but groups are encouraged to gather together for an Easter celebration at some point during Eastertide! 

ALPHA Course

Are you new to the Christian faith or curious about what it means to follow Jesus? Join us for the Alpha Course this spring! Held Tuesday evenings at the Parish House (time is TBD). Alpha is a safe and welcoming space to ask questions, explore the basics of Christianity, and connect with others on the journey of faith. No pressure, no judgment—just open conversation. Alpha is a 10-week course and will begin on February 18th and conclude mid-May with breaks for Holy Week & Easter. Also, If you would like to attend an Alpha course, but Tuesday evenings don’t work for you, please fill still out the form and let us know.
