Who We Are

Rooted in downtown Sanford, Saint Thomas is a warm community centered on sacramental worship, spiritual growth, and warm connections. We bring together lifelong Episcopalians and those searching for a spiritual home to pray, ask honest questions, and grow in faith.

Belonging, Growing, and Delighting in the Love of God.

Belonging

We cultivate a warm, inclusive community where every person is fully embraced. We cannot be who we are without one another.

We deepen our faith by encouraging open curiosity about God and extending compassionate care to our neighbors and the world around us.
