St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church

About this church

St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church is an Ojai parish in the Santa Barbara Pastoral Region of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, served by Augustinians since 1926. Its community life centers on Mass, sacraments, prayer, religious education, youth formation, parish ministries, and service in English and Spanish. A Safeguard the Children Committee supports the parish’s safe-environment work and helps distribute abuse-prevention information.

Saturday Vigil Mass begins at 5:00 p.m., followed by Spanish Mass at 6:30. Sunday Mass is at 7:30 and 9:30 a.m., with Spanish Mass at 11:30. Weekday Mass meets Monday through Friday at 8:00 a.m. and Saturday morning at 8:00. The parish describes Mass as the source and summit of Catholic life and explains that worship includes Scripture, preaching, prayers, and the Eucharist. Its history traces Catholic ministry in the Ojai Valley to the late nineteenth century and identifies 1926 as the year Augustinian priests assumed responsibility for the parish. Public pages do not specify Mass length, dress, parking, accessibility, nursery care, child check-in, livestream coverage, confession hours, or a current recurring youth-group schedule. The youth pages still display 2025 confirmation registration dates, so those should not be used to plan a 2026 visit.
