St. Thomas' is proud to announce that we raised close to $1000 for 1000 Jobs Haiti by selling their handmade goods at the Charlestown Farmer's Market.  Thanks to all of the parishioners who helped staff the table.
For the past few Sundays, there has been a new feature added to announcement time +/or coffee hour time.  Parishioners are giving reports on God Sightings in their lives.  These are moments when the presence of God or the rush of the Holy Spirit have been particular noticeable.  We have already heard some remarkable stories!
