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 people of all ages and stages to grow in their relationships with God and one another.

Guided by the Holy Spirit and the teachings of Jesus Christ, we share God's love with the world and throughout our daily lives.

There is much to celebrate in the Christian life; even in the midst of the challenges that arise. In community life we face both the joys and sorrows together knowing that God, the Living Presence, is always present and active in our lives.
The Fall has been full of opportunities to grow in grace. We have been meeting to worship, pray, practice meditation, walk a labyrinth, create a collage, enjoy drum circles, men's breakfasts, learn in the Anglican 101 workshops, and the Following Jesus Double-Digit (Jr. Youth) gatherings, enjoy the pet blessing service, have a relaxed worship night "Latria", coffee & conversation with LGBTQ+ community, and much more.
November has a music team retreat, an All-Age Service Nov 17 and a Newcomers Lunch that day too! Drop in or register for specific events. The Season of Advent begins Sunday, December 1. Beautiful gatherings are planned for this special time of year where we wait, wonder, and welcome Christ of the manger, Christ in our hearts, Christ for the world.
St. Thomas has been on a community discernment process to develop a 5-year plan. The plan focuses on St. Thomas Community Life, Community Outreach, Spiritual Formation, and Future Development. We shared 4 weeks of coffee & conversation Sundays after church to listen, share, and collect surveys. We are excited about the outcomes of this project and will soon be launching the plan and a stewardship forecast. If you have any likes, concerns, or dreams to contribute, drop us an email, join a service, or stop by for coffee/tea at the office.
