Coming Events

Chaplaincy is the work of pastoral ministry carried out with the entire St. Thomas More community. It involves such elements as:

• school liturgies at the opening of the school year. Advent, Holy Week, the closing of the school year, and other occasions, as well as weekly masses in our chapel.
• the celebration of the Sacrament of Reconciliation during Advent and Lent
• Grade 12 Retreats during the school year
• support for such community initiatives Hallowe'en for Hunger, the STM Christmas Miracle, Starvathon and Walk with Christ: Justice for the Poor.

The chapel is a place of sanctuary and prayer. As classes, we often celebrate the Eucharist or have prayer services, guided meditations, or orientation tours for Grade 9's. It is a peaceful place to visit when you feel the need to be close to God.

The most important element of our faith life is the members of the community: You, the students at St. Thomas More. You make this school a holy place by your acts of love.

I look forward to meeting you. Please take the time to drop by my office and introduce yourself to me. I will try to learn your name during the course of the year, and I am available if you ever feel the need to talk.

Weekly masses in the chapel on Wednesday mornings before class.
