Art & Environment
The Art & Environment Ministry plays a creative and inspiring role at St. Thomas the Apostle. This dedicated group is responsible for designing, decorating and maintaining our worship space throughout the liturgical year.
Serving in Art & Environment is both a spiritual and creative calling.
Their work helps set a reverent and welcoming atmosphere for every Mass and celebration, allowing parishioners to experience the beauty of God’s presence through color, texture and design. From arranging flowers to preparing seasonal décor for Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter, this ministry brings the church to life with artistry and faith.
The Art & Environment group welcomes anyone with a love for design, organization, or simply a desire to serve. Whether arranging flowers, caring for altar linens or setting up banners and candles, every contribution helps create a meaningful worship experience.
- Being part of this ministry is a joyful way to connect with others, grow spiritually, and take pride in helping the parish celebrate each season.
- Many Parishioners from the group have been helping for 10+ years... some over 20!
- Each decoration and arrangement is a form of service—an offering of time, creativity and devotion to God and the parish community.
