St. Thomas’ Episcopal Church, Whitemarsh

ANNUAL GIVING OPPORTUNITY

Dear Friend in Christ,

God is up to good things at St. Thomas’. The Second Saturday Barn

Sales are attracting new volunteers and guests, and we are raising

record funds to care for the vulnerable in our community and the

world. We are coming together as one to discern God’s dream

for our future as part of our Faith in Action visioning process.

Moreover, we called the Rev. Amy Crawford to lead our children,

youth, and family ministries and enrich our worship. The harvest is

plentiful, and the ranks of our laborers are expanding. During the

past year, we have welcomed more than 50 new members of

all ages.

So, it is with joy and gratitude in our hearts that we write to invite

you to give to support our mission to be here for God and here for

good. We are proud of St. Thomas’ heritage and thank God for all

that we enjoyed and endured in the past, knowing that God will use

it for the spread of God’s kingdom. Yet, we are confident that our

best days are ahead of us.

That is where you come in. Your financial commitment to St.

Thomas’ is essential to sustaining our forward momentum. Christian

stewardship is a spiritual practice. Through the discipline of giving

in proportion to what you have received from the hand of God,

you will grow closer to God and the people of St. Thomas’ through

your generosity.

Please prayerfully consider your 2026 annual gift to St. Thomas’

and then join us in making a bold commitment. We are profoundly

grateful for the abundance of God’s harvest and the opportunity to

labor by your side on the 42 acres of our holy hill and beyond.

May you and your loved ones have a fall filled to overflowing with faith, hope, and love

Yours faithfully,
