The parishioners of St Thomas parish family are drawn
from 3 towns in Rhode Island because the parish is
situated at a corner where all 3 come together. It is a
mid-sized parish & has about 1,200 families
registered.
St. Thomas has a strong Food Pantry, ministry to the
sick and dying, sacramental preparation, and many

The music program is ensemble-based with a variety of
instruments providing music for prayer. The assembly at
St. Thomas has a long history of singing at liturgy and
"our liturgies are beautifully prepared and
celebrated."
