Church guide

Today we remember the death of Jesus on the cross, executed by the Roman authorities. Our prayers and hearts go out to those who are unjustly convicted, convicts on death row, prisoners of conscience, and all who suffer that others might thrive. May we also remember God on the cross, suffering alongside us. Come and adore the cross with us at our ecumenical service at Noon (at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Hanover). Later this evening we venerate Christ's cross (with Communion from the Reserved Sacrament) here at St Thomas at 7pm.

Come enjoy the Gethsemane Garden open house today, from 3-5pm. The garden will also be open all night for prayer following this evening's 7pm service.

Join us at 7pm today for Maundy Thursday with Foot washing - the first service of the Triduum.

Our final decorations are up. Join us today to share in the Peace of the Christ child at 3.30pm, 5pm or 10pm. Tomorrow we celebrate again at 9am. Merry Christmas!

Members of St Thomas held vigil along with Jewish brothers and sisters and other community members yesterday evening at Dartmouth Green.

Watch the crane remove one of our old inefficient HVAC units by hoisting it over the church. All units were replaced earlier this morning with super energy efficient units that will save energy and money.

Before (right) and after (large picture on the left). Sustainable St Thomas projects are in full swing. Here the parish office is being insulated. Meanwhile, a contractor (pictured) is preparing to insulate the attic spaces. Last week new ventilation pipes were installed in the basement to help improve air quality in the choir room, church school and music offices. This week those pipes are being painted and prepared for hookup to new air ventilators and dehumidifiers. Thanks go to our heroic property manager Tonya Gilman for coordinating all the various contractors and projects. And thanks to all those supporting St Thomas and our efforts to be more sustainable.

Sustainable St Thomas work continues! It is busy here on West Wheelock Street.

These two canine visitors waited patiently in the pew at yesterday's Blessing of the Animals at St Thomas!

Thanks to all the amazing St Thomas parishioners who went to Claremont to install the longest ramp we've yet worked on with COVER. Thanks also our great COVER leaders and the homeowner and family, without whom none of this could have happened. It was a very fun day, and a very productive day. Pictured are members of the St Thomas crew and COVER team who were still standing at the end of the day (well, leaning). We are all planning on sleeping well tonight.
