St. Thomas' Annouces Its New Rental Space Program

St. Thomas' Church, Whitemarsh instituted a new rental space program on May 31, 2006 that includes leasing opportunties on a variety of buildings and grounds on the church campus.  The goal of the program is to provide financial support to the campus as well as entice new members to become part of the church community. 

On May 31, 2006 the church hosted a “sneak peak” kick-off event introducing the leasing program to parishioners and community members alike -- highlighting the room rentals that are available.
