St. Thomas the Apostle will be celebrating the 45th anniversary of the new church with a Mass on April 11th at 11 AM (see above ad). The advertisement does not mention whether or not Bishop Clark will offer this Mass. Make of that what you will. I hope the celebration will be wonderful for the people of St. Thomas, and will not be shortly followed with news of closure.
This actually would be the perfect time to announce that STA will remain open. One can dream…

This is actually a celebration of the 45th anniversary of the dedication of the current church building.
The parish, itself, dates from 1922.
Thanks for catching the typo.
Yes, they had a basement church long before the present structure. The origins of St. Thomas parish can also be traced to the old St. George chapel in Summerville.
