Welcoming Ministry

Warm greetings are given at all Masses as people are welcomed into our Church and given Mass leaflets and hymnals.

We have many tourists, pilgrims, and transient worshippers as well as a large, faithful congregation who are all welcomed with a smile and made to feel at home. Our visitors have told us that they appreciate this service.

If you are interested in becoming involved and would like more information, feel free to come and join by contacting the parish office.  We are a friendly and helpful team and try to give every parishioner, visitor and pilgrim a blessed experience in their visit to St. Thomas parish church. Our welcomers also help to organise the Offertory procession and the Offertory collection.

Alternatively, go to our Volunteering page.

There is a monthly volunteer rota in the Sacristy for the 9.30 am Sunday Mass which gives the contact details of the other Welcoming Ministry volunteers so if you are unable to make your dates, then others can easily cover.
