Our Core Values
Please learn about what guides the St. Thomas Community by exploring the windows below.
Love
Love
God loves us unconditionally. In return, our call is to love God and others by intentionally showing compassion, empathy, and support. By demonstrating deep care for others, we will go beyond feelings and move into actions that have the capacity to build lasting relationships with each other and the community.Acceptance
Acceptance
We recognize the inherent value of acknowledging and embracing yourself, others, and life’s circumstances without judgement. We foster inclusivity, recognize everyone’s unique identities, respect different perspectives, and strive to create an environment where everyone feels respected, valued, and seen.Faith
Faith
Our faith acknowledges and trusts in God and gives us confidence and hope. Our faith is actionable and observable through our behavior, the way we treat others, and the acts of service we perform. We believe in the transformative power of faith and use our influence to spread the word of God.Community
Community
St. Thomas shares a strong sense of community inside and outside the walls of the church. Unified by shared principles and a strong belief system, we promote a sense of belonging, mutual respect, and collaboration. Whether we are partnering with in-house committees or constituents in the neighborhood, we do so with integrity, equity, authenticity, and open communication.Giving
Giving
We believe that giving and practicing generosity are central to contributing to the well-being of others. When our actions are in sync with our Christian beliefs, words, and behaviors, and we demonstrate gratitude and appreciation, we are modeling Christ-like behaviors.This Week at St. Thomas . . .
