We are a diverse community striving to live out God’s love in our world. We are a community church that participates in the life of our Park Hill neighborhood. We believe that all people are beloved of God. Wherever you are on your faith journey, you are welcome at St. Thomas regardless of your ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, social status or political beliefs. We are all God’s children. St.Thomas Episcopal Church was founded in Denver’s Park Hill neighborhood in 1908. It is a historic church, with deep roots in civil rights activism. Social justice is central to who we are as a church community. We also love our music and celebrate diversity incorporating traditional hymns, anthems with African American spirituals, gospel tunes and more contemporary music.

We are a part of The Episcopal Church in Colorado, under the direction and guidance of our bishop, the Rt. Rev. Kym Lucas. The Diocese of Colorado is one of 109 dioceses of The Episcopal Church, which is located in the United States and 16 other nations. It is a member of the worldwide Anglican Communion.

The Episcopal Church is part of the worldwide Anglican Communion, and traces its heritage to the beginnings of Christianity. Our liturgy retains ancient structure and traditions and is celebrated in many languages. In fact, in addition to the United States, the Episcopal Church has congregations around the world. Our baptismal vows call us to love our neighbors as ourselves and respect the dignity of every person. Holy Communion may be received by all baptized Christians, not just members of the Episcopal Church. Both men and women, including those who are married, are eligible for ordination as deacons, priests, and bishops. We believe in unity through diversity. We celebrate our unity in Christ while honoring our differences, always putting the work of love before uniformity of opinion. All are welcome to find a spiritual home in the Episcopal Church.
