This congregation exists to worship, love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. We offer opportunities for worship, education, fellowship and service which encourage that mission.

Founded in 1823, Saint Thomas Church was incorporated in the City of New York on January 9, 1824, by members from three downtown parishes who wanted to establish a church in their own neighborhood on the northern edge of "settled" Manhattan. The first edifice was at Broadway and Houston Streets.

The present Saint Thomas Church is actually the fourth building in the remarkable history of a great New York parish. A graceful presence in the midst of busy streets, our church was designed in the French Gothic style. It is not a copy of any other structure, but is, in the words of one of its architects, a building of "rigid honesty" in design, construction and decoration.

 

The Saint Thomas Choir is considered by many to be the outstanding choral ensemble of the Anglican musical tradition in the United States. This choir of men and boys sings at the principal worship services of the church and also offers a full concert series each year. The men of the choir are professional singers; the boys attend the Saint Thomas Choir School. In recent years the Choir has sung in England, Ireland, Canada, Washington, D.C., and Florida and has produced a number of recordings.

You can listen to a selection of our choir's music from our website along with audio of our recent sermons.

We also offer a large selection of CD recordings of the Saint Thomas choir and organs for purchase through our site.
