There will be no Centering Prayer / Evening Prayer on 20 and 27 May.
Join the ECW for our church-wide spring book drive to benefit BookSmiles, a local non-profit that provides books to under-resourced school districts throughout New Jersey and Philadelphia. We will be collecting new and gently used children’s books from April 14 through June 2. Whether fiction or nonfiction, we are looking to collect books from ages infant to high school. If you would like to donate books starting on April 14, please put them in the collection bin in the Parish Hall. If you would like to make a monetary donation for the book drive, please see either Rachael O. or Linda K. or leave a donation in a labelled envelope in the collection plate. To learn more about the type and quality of materials BookSmiles accept, please watch the following video. If you have any questions about the book drive, please see Rachael O.
From the Nominating Committee of the Diocese of New Jersey:
It is now time to nominate for “vacant” diocesan positions. I’m requesting that you review the open positions and nominate quality candidates. I recognize that we are busy. I recognize that we have things to do. And I know for a fact that our diocese will only be as
strong and healthy as our leaders stemming from nominated quality candidates.
The offices to be filled:

Here at St. Thomas’, we offer our thanks to Donna F. and Tal K. who frequently and faithfully serve in various roles of Diocesan leadership. Ask them how you might serve as well!
Our own Jeremy O. will be performing with the Greater Philadelphia Choral Society. Check out his performances below!
