The choice to join a church is not one lightly made. At St. Thaddeus, we encourage you to try this place by getting involved. You can thereby support a rewarding ministry and discern whether this is the church you are called to make home. Join us in worship, outreach and parish life. By actively participating in these different dimensions of church life, you can enrich your spiritual journey and contribute meaningfully to the broader faith community.
Outreach extends the church’s impact far beyond its walls, reaching out to those in need within the local and global community. Engaging in outreach can involve volunteering at a soup kitchen, participating in clothing drives, organizing fundraisers for charitable causes, or engaging in missions to provide aid to communities in crisis. These endeavors allow you to embody the teachings of love, compassion, and service that are central to many faith traditions, making a tangible difference in the lives of others.
Worship lies at the core of a church’s existence, offering a sacred space for spiritual reflection, praise, and communion with the divine. Whether you prefer traditional liturgical services, contemporary worship, or a blend of both, attending regular worship services provides an opportunity to deepen your faith, draw inspiration from sermons, and join your fellow parishioners in collective prayer and contemplation. It’s a time to connect with the divine, find solace, and renew your spiritual energy for the week ahead.
Parish life is the heart and soul of a church community, offering a vibrant tapestry of activities and connections. Within the parish, you can explore opportunities such as Sunday school classes, Bible study groups, choir participation, and fellowship events like potluck dinners and seasonal celebrations. These activities help build a sense of belonging and unity among members, fostering deeper relationships and a shared sense of purpose.
