Young Adults Ministry
Purpose:
To provide forums in which young adults can socialize, have fun, and explore their spirituality in the light of their life's opportunities and challenges, and God's response in Scripture.
The St. Thomas Young Adult Ministry provides a wide range of activities to meet the social and spiritual needs of our young adults. They include: two short annual Bible Study series, one in the Spring and the other in the Fall; sponsor three annual lectures; serving our local community by cooking meals (three times a year) for the St. Barnabas Mission in West Philly; educational and entertainment outings/trips; and decorating the church for our annual Christmas service (held on Christmas Eve.)

Our college students have not been left out. In order to keep them involved in the life of the church and continue to grow in their faith journey, the F.E.N.C.E. (acronym for Families of Episcopalians Nurturing within the College Environment) ministry links them with surrogate families from Episcopal parishes in their college communities across the country.
