We have come far from the days of the “Frozen Chosen”. That said, we cannot now nor ever sit on our laurels. The Episcopal Church - the branch of the Church Universal where St. Thomas of Canterbury serves Christ - still has a way to go. Our Baptismal Covenant calls us each to continue Christ’s work of lifting up all people - ALL - no exceptions. If we are to be an example to our siblings who make up the rest of branches of the True Vine, we must always be examining ourselves, confessing our own shortcomings, making amends where necessary, and reaching out to all who are in need, oppressed and ignored - especially in our own house. We may not be perfect, but we had St. Thomas of Canterbury strive to live into Christ’s Great Commandment to love God and neighbor.
We who joyfully call St. Thomas of Canterbury our parish welcomes all.
