St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church

About this church

St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church celebrates Sunday Mass at 10 a.m. at 2160 North Edward Street in Decatur. Reconciliation is available Sunday from 9:15 to 9:50, allowing people to receive the sacrament before Mass. The weekday schedule includes Mass at 8:15 a.m. Wednesday. On the first Friday of the month, Eucharistic Adoration is published from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Because holy days, funerals, and special parish events can alter a weekly calendar, visitors should confirm a date-specific plan on the church's current homepage.

The parish began in 1925 to serve Catholics in Decatur's growing northwest area. Its present church was dedicated in 1977, linking a modern worship space with a community whose roots extend back more than a century. Parish ministries offer ways to participate in liturgy, music, prayer, hospitality, religious education, charitable service, and social life. Mass-intention information also explains how parishioners may request prayer at a scheduled liturgy. St. Thomas presents itself as a smaller Catholic community where worship and relationships are closely connected. A first-time visitor can use the 10 a.m. Mass as the main weekly entry point, arrive earlier if seeking Sunday Reconciliation, and consult the parish calendar before relying on the Wednesday or first-Friday schedule.
