We are
Healthcare-focused parishioners of the St. Tom's campus Catholic Community interested in providing for and contributing to support for health support in our parish.

Our mission
“in collaboration with the pastoral staff, we work to enhance the spiritual, physical, emotional, and social well-being of our St. Tom's community.”

Our purpose
“To participate in the ongoing transformation of the faith community at St. Tom’s as a source of health and healing.

To build and strengthen the capacity of individuals, families, and congregation to understand and care for one another in the light of their relationship to God, our Catholic faith tradition, and the broader society.

To assist and empower each individual to become a more active partner in the management of personal health resources.

To foster new and creative responses to health care concerns.”
