Stained Glass
Dear Prospective Candidate

​We’re so glad you’ve found your way to us. At St. Thomas, music isn’t just something we enjoy—it’s something that draws us deeper into the sacred, the beautiful, and the communal. Whether it’s the rich harmony of choral anthems, the reverence of the organ during Eucharist, or the joyful noise of congregational singing, music is truly the beating heart of our worship. ​ You’re reading this because we’re searching for someone special: not just a skilled musician and leader, but someone who will help us grow spiritually, artistically, and as a community. We’re looking forward to meeting you—learning about your passions, your vision, and what inspires you. ​What you’ll want to know right away is this: we are a congregation that values tradition but embraces warmth; we love excellence but we’re not performative; we care deeply about reverence, beauty, and inclusion. We take our worship seriously—and our coffee hour, too. ​We think you’ll love us because we’re not just looking for a hire; we’re praying for a partner. Someone who can help us offer our best to God each week, and who will laugh, learn, and journey with us along the way. ​We’re excited for what comes next—and we hope it’s you. ​ With warmth and hope, The People of St. Thomas Episcopal Church
