St. Thomas More invites all Boys and Girls who are at least 8 years old and have received their First Holy Communion to become servers at the Lord's Altar. Servers carry the cross and the processional candles, hold the book for the priest when he is not at the altar, carry the incense and censer, present the bread, wine, and water to the priest during the preparation of the gifts and assist him when he receives the gifts from the people, wash the hands of the priest, assist the celebrant and deacon whenever needed, respond to the prayers and dialogues of the priest along with the congregation and join in singing the hymns and songs of the liturgy.

Prayer & Devotional
The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and active co-operation in Mary's and the Church's work. The Legion of Mary group holds a weekly meeting on Tuesdays after the 8:30am mass in the Faith Formation building, Room # 2, where prayer is intermingled with reports and discussion. The Legion sees as its priority the spiritual and social welfare of each individual. The members participate in the life of the parish through visitation of families, the sick, both in their homes and in hospitals and through collaboration in every apostolic and missionary undertaking sponsored by the parish.

The St. Peregrine Cancer Care Ministry is a hope ministry that involves prayer, counsel, emotional & spiritual support and assistance, but is mainly centered on bringing God's hope to patients and caregivers, family and friends through their bible based ministry training program. They're equipped with the tools needed to bring hope to the millions who are living with cancer or have a friend or family member living with cancer. We meet the 2nd Saturday of every month immediately following the St. Peregrine Healing Mass (which is at 9am) in Room 2 of the Faith Formation building.
Música
Participating in divine worship services as a choir member is a sacred responsibility, not to be taken lightly. The music is an integral part of mass and choral music must add to the liturgy, not distract from the prayerful environment of worship. Every hymn, every phrase, every verse of the church service must be rendered clearly and fittingly. This requires singers who are inwardly committed not just to the music, but also, and primarily, to the Faith. Please share your talent and become a member of our Adult, Resurrection, or Children's Choir groups.

Circle of Friends encourages new friendships and spiritual growth. Membership in the Catholic Church is NOT required and you don't even need to be a member of ANY church but keep in mind, when coming to these events that most members of Circle of Friends ARE Catholics. The meetings are very casual. The meeting is a good place to meet with people who understand your situation and with whom you can make friends. Circle of Friends gives back to the community by volunteering for local charities. They do hands-on service, for example, by painting, serving food to the community and whatever else needs to be done for St. Thomas More. The Circle of Friends meet the 1st Thursday of the month, from September through June in Room 6 of the Faith Formation Building at 6:45 pm

St. Thomas More is in need of Purificators. Just as the altar is a sign for us of Christ the living stone, altar cloths are used "out of reverence for the celebration of the memorial of the Lord and the banquet that gives us his body." By their beauty and form they add to the dignity of the altar in much the same way that vestments solemnly ornament the priests and sacred ministers. Such cloths also serve a practical purpose in absorbing whatever may be spilled of the Precious Blood or other sacramental elements.
Youth & Young Adult
Come join the St. Thomas More Youth Group for phenomenal activities, entertainment, prayer, and divine worship. We meet every Saturday from 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm in the Faith Formation Building Room # 6. All youth ages 13-17 are welcome!
