St Thomas'S Church

We were treated to a fabulous concert last Saturday by some of our young choristers. They sung and played a huge variety of music and instruments and delighted us. Looking forward to the next time!

And so it begins..........the scaffolding goes up for the first stage in our exciting programme of repair, refurbishment and renewal; the medieval Doom painting. #stthomassalisbury #medieval #salisburyhistory

Our fabulous young choristers show on Saturday (12.15pm) that they are not only excellent singers but also talented instrumentalists. Please support their concert and spread the word. Thank you!

Here are some photos from our Flags of Thanks event last week - a big thank you to all who made these beautiful flags in support of our armed forces and homeless veterans, to those who visited the exhibition, and to the sewing soldier himself!

Don't miss this brilliant concert tonight!

From Monday 24th June, in what is set to be an incredible exhibition, over 1000 handmade flags will fill St Thomas's with colour.

Chair of the Quest Appeal, John Bruce-Ball, paid in the proceeds of a further thirteen 20p collecting boxes today, adding to the appeal a total of £520. That’s £40 per box on average. Thank you to all who have collected and handed boxes in. Collecting boxes are available at the back of the church for your 20p pieces. Thank you.

This excerpt from Elizabeth Bishops' "Song for the Rainy Season" is helping us to reflect on all the natural beauty that rain makes possible. Still, here's hoping for some sunshine soon!
