St. Thomas’ commitment to welcoming and accompanying one another challenges us to be more deeply aware of the diversity in our community and the gifts each of us have to offer. As a faith community committed to intentional hospitality, St. Thomas the Apostle desires to reach out to those of all sexual orientations to begin to discern how we can better be the loving, inclusive community God has called us to be. If you are part of the LGBTQ+ community or an ally, please consider attending a Listening Session on Saturday, October 18, at 10:00 am, in the Lighthouse.

What do we hope to accomplish with a Listening Session? We want to know how we can better welcome you and accompany you on your faith journey. What is it that you need or want from the faith community of St. Thomas? This Listening Session is for anyone, middle school age through adult. The goal is to create a safe space for sharing and for hearing each other.

We hope to welcome you Saturday, October 18, at 10:00 am. If you have questions or would like more information, please reach out to Peggy Goralski at pgoralski@stapsotle.org or 630.355.8980, x123.
