St. Thomas is an inclusive and affirming Christian faith community growing in grace as we live out the life of Christ in the beautiful city of Chilliwack. Our mission and vision are to be a diverse Christian family within the community, empowering individuals to grow in their relationships with God and one another.
However you understand yourself, and however you describe yourself is fine with us! Your background, race, gender, orientation, and spiritual journey are welcomed and celebrated here.
Guided by the Holy Spirit and the teachings of Jesus Christ, we share God's love with the world and throughout our daily lives.
Holy Eucharist every Sunday at 10:00 am and Healing Eucharist most Fridays at 10:00 am.
Check out Events or see Ministries.
Please feel free to contact us!
For Pastoral Care requests, please call Rev. Lorie Martin: 604-217-6966.
There is much to celebrate in the Christian life; even in the midst of the challenges and sorrows that arise. In community life we face both the joys and sorrows together.
We are moving from the 40-day season of Lent in the desert where we have been in preparation for the Mysteries of Holy Week which we turn toward at this time. The theme for Lent 2024 at St. Thomas has been ‘God’s Lavish Love in Lent’. We now move into 'Healing in Holy Week'
