The Fifth Sunday Of Easter
The Fifth Sunday Of Easter
O Almighty God, whom truly to know is everlasting life: Grant us so perfectly to know thy Son Jesus Christ to be the way, the truth, and the life, that we may steadfastly follow his steps in the way that leadeth to eternal life; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

The 11am Eucharist is typically the best-attended worship service at Saint Thomas each week. It is at this service that you not only will experience the full power of liturgy, music and preaching at Saint Thomas, but also will have the opportunity to meet many parishioners in the pews. Coffee hour follows the service.
Today’s Eucharist is “festal” because we are in Eastertide, en route to Ascension Day (the 40th Day of Easter) and Pentecost (the 50th Day of Easter). Because the service is festal, there is incense during the Offertory. Included during worship are hymns sung by the congregation and choir, additional music sung exclusively by the choir, lessons, prayers, a sermon, and a Rite I Mass. All baptized Christians are welcome to receive Holy Communion. Details of the service may be seen in the leaflet, which is posted at the bottom of this page.
‚ñ∫Today is the annual in-gathering of the United Thank Offering (UTO) of the Episcopal Church U.S.A. The UTO supports mission projects both at home and overseas. If you are present in person at this serivce, please make your checks payable to Saint Thomas Church and mark “UTO” on the memo line and place it in the blue envelope in your pew. If you are not here, you may send your check ASAP to
Saint Thomas Church

‚ñ∫The music heard at today’s Festal Eucharist is all by French composers. John Scott speaks of Jean Langlais and Marcel Dupr√© in his Music Notes.
