"Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony." ~Colossians 3:14
With these words, the Apostle Paul commends the Christians in Colossae to embrace a new life in Christ in which they seek to bear one another's burdens and share one another's joys. It is this new life that we seek to embody at St. Thomas' Episcopal Church in Abingdon, Virginia. We invite you to be part of this remarkable community...and clothe yourself with love in this place, through worship, learning, and service. Please come!

Sacred Ground Race Dialogue Circles
Sacred Ground is dialogue series on race, grounded in faith. Small groups are invited to walk through chapters of America’s history of race, racism, and whiteness while weaving in threads of family story, economic class, and political and regional identity. The 10-part series is built around a powerful online curriculum of documentary films and readings that focus on Indigenous, Black, Latino, and Asian/Pacific American histories as they intersect with European American histories.
Sacred Ground is a resource coming out of Becoming Beloved Community, The Episcopal Church’s long-term commitment to racial healing, reconciliation, and justice in our personal lives, our ministries, and our society. This series is especially designed to help white people talk with other white people, while being open to all racial/ethnic groups. Participants are invited to peel away the layers that have contributed to the challenges and divides of the present day – all while grounded in our call to faith, hope and love.
