Share a Meal Together
It can be awkward to invite someone round for a meal or a game. But we’ve tried to make it the normal thing to do at St Thomas. Why not try to invite a new person or family around after church?

One very simple way to express hospitality is to simply stay around at the end of our morning services. We hope that the refreshments we serve will encourage you to stay around and talk, to speak to visitors and to people you don’t know, and to make initial connections with others in the church. It’s part of how we’re building a church that feels like the family of God.
