Special Announcements

There is a need to remind parishioners once again about emails and/or texts being sent purporting to be from Pastor Fr. John Lyons. Neither he nor any other priests at St. Thomas, nor any member of the Parish staff will EVER send an email or text asking for money, gift cards or suggesting the recipient click on any link. 

If any parishioner receives such an email or text that is anything other than merely informative, please call the office and check before responding.

Money from parishioners should only be given in the offertory basket, our secure online giving website, by mail or handed directly to an office staffer. 

Are you seeking a closer relationship with Jesus and a deeper prayer life? Do you have a devotion to Our Blessed Mother Mary and an interest in the teachings of the Carmelite saints?

During the months of July, August and September the Santa Cruz Community of Secular Discalced Carmelites welcomes visitors to attend its meetings and find about their way of life in order to discern whether God is calling you to be part of the Carmelite religious order as a lay person.

For more information visit http://ocds.info. Also contact Mary Naifeh, OCDS at 520-745-5734. 

On Saturday, August 10 at St. Joseph Catholic Church - Healy Hall, join in a FREE day of praise, adoration, anointed teachings prayer, Holy Spirit power and healing. Bring your own sack lunch, Bible and an open heart. Beverages and snacks will be provided.
