The CDC COVID-19 Community Level is MEDIUM. This means masks are not required but still not a bad idea! COVID exposures (being around someone who has COVID but doesn’t realize it yet) are still happening, including at church.
Please note: COVID cases are going around our (St. Thomas’, South Jersey) community. Please take the precautions you need and test if you feel cause for concern. We’re all tired of COVID, but apparently it is not yet tired of us!
Bring your pet(s) tomorrow, 1 October at 4PM, and join us for a brief liturgy at the Lych Gate as we honor the Feast of St. Francis’ by asking God’s blessing on those animals that are dear to us.
The St. Thomas’ ECW is once again participating in Boscov’s “Friends Helping Friends” fundraiser. For a $5.00 donation to St. Thomas’, you will receive a 25% off shopping pass to be used in most departments in-store only (not online), Wednesday, October 19th from 8 am til 11 pm. Any funds raised by St. Thomas’ will be used to support our ECW’s mission projects for women and children. Please see Linda K. or any ECW member to purchase your shopping pass.
The annual Pitman Glassboro CROP Hunger Walk is Sunday, October 16th at 1PM at New St Park in Glassboro. Money or non-perishable food (i.e. peanut butter or jelly) are accepted. Make checks payable to “CWS/CROP”. Part of every donation will help Kitchen of Hope, Samaritan Center, Pitman Pantry, and the Shop at Rowan. Stride along with Saint Thomas’ in Glassboro to raise money and awareness to help feed the hungry near and far! Will you consider joining our team? You can get more info here or by contacting Eric C.
Welcome Fall! The St. Thomas’ ECW is most grateful for the generous support we had in the spring in the collection of toiletries given to Mothers Matter for moms in need. This fall we are collecting women’s sanitary products (pads, tampons, etc.) to be given to the food pantry at Rowan University. Costs of these items has skyrocketed, and we feel we can be of help to the young women of Rowan. Please consider donating sanitary products or a monetary donation for this mission. There are baskets in the church and the first floor of the Parish Hall for your donation or you can put a monetary donation in the collection plate in an envelope marked ECW-Sanitary Products. Thank you!!
Our COVID protocol is following the CDC guidelines for Gloucester County. Masks are not presently required. But they are still simple and effective protection. Please be sure to stay on top of your recommended vaccinations to protect all those you love.
