Good morning faith family. See St. Thomas’s Carpenter’s Helper newsletter for news and events information for the Third Sunday after Epiphany – January 23, 2022, Year A. This week, you will find not just one, but TWO Adult Education offerings:
My Faith / Your Faith – Becoming who and what we are and

In this strange pandemic time, the church is aware that some of its members are struggling to make ends meet. If you are in this situation, please let the clergy know of your needs, pray for the church, and feel no guilt about your giving. But if you are able to give, options for giving include mailing a check to your church or online giving. See our Giving information.
