Welcome to St Thomas' in the Groves! We are a small, but growing, church in the heart of the Groves area of York. We are committed to reaching out into our local community – serving people who are in need, and above all showing God’s love as best we can. We want to celebrate what God is doing in this wonderful part of His world.

Although we normally meet together each Sunday at 10.30am, and we hope that people find our gatherings welcoming, family-friendly, and full of God’s presence, because of the coronavirus pandemic we are not able to meet in person but instead are moving online and making other provisions for pastoral support.

If you live in this part of York, you can be assured that we are praying that God will richly bless you and that you will know his love and goodness in your life.

There's a lot happening on our facebook page with talks, services, children's stuff and chat.

St Thomas News 1st April 2021

Dear Church Family,

I'm sure not many of us would have expected, as we celebrated Easter 2020 online, that we'd still be restricted from meeting together by Easter 2021. For all the sadnesses and frustrations, we trust that our loving Father has been and continues to be at work.

This week, there are a number of services taking place. Today, (very shortly!) at 12pm there is a Maundy Thursday communion service in church.

Tomorrow at 2pm is a reflective service for Good Friday - this will be both in-person and livestreamed (please join by Facebook or YouTube for this service, rather than Zoom, to make things easier for us technically!)
