Welcome to St Thomas with St Maurice, your parish church in
the Groves, York.

St Thomas' is in a fantastic location in a mixed residential area
close to the hub of York and York St John University. It is
beginning to find renewed confidence and sense of direction. A
'Mission Unit' under Revd Terence McDonough was set up in
December 2006 to address the challenges it faced. In March
2009 this moved into a new phase with the appointment of Phil
Moore as Priest in Charge and Co-ordinator of the Mission Unit.
Revd Liz Ransford (Pioneer Ministry) is also based at St Thomas',
which is used by her Exodus group.

If you simply want to find a place to worship God, a place to be
quiet and think, or just to drop in for a look around, you are
most welcome at St Thomas' - no strings attached.

On the other hand, if you want to play an active part in a small
community of Christian people who aim to serve God in their
local area, St Thomas' may also be for you. Situated in The
Groves, York, we are in the middle of a very varied community
near the centre of the City. There are many possibilities here,
but, to quote Jesus, 'The labourers are few'.

Whichever of these positions you are in at the moment, we
believe if you come to St Thomas' seeking Jesus Christ, he will
not disappoint you.
