Episcokids | St. Thomas Episcopal Church

At St. Thomas Episcopal Church, we strive to provide a loving and nurturing community that engages children in a journey of Christian faith, encourages them to understand it, empowers them to learn to live it, and instills in them the confidence to carry the love of Christ to others. You may hear me refer to the children of our church as Episcokids. I call them this because I believe that the children I work with become extensions of my own family in Christ. - a note from Miss Erin
