Outreach of hospitality from St. Thomas Anglican Church

Our Rector was honoured to be invited to the Syrian Orthodox service for the feast day of St. Elias on Feb 11.  This is an Orthodox service in the Malayalam language, and is an outreach of hospitality from St. Thomas Anglican Church for the growing local East Indian population in the Quinte area. 

Chats with Brad

Tuesday’s discussion chats will take place every  Tuesday on Zoom at 7:00PM. 

This is an opportunity to keep in touch with others, and dig a bit into the weekly readings, in a very relaxed and comfortable forum.

Kitchen user education

 Please stay current with proper kitchen safety and practices.

The Kitchen Manual can be found as a download in the Resource section of this website. This should be read periodically by all users to keep updated. Any questions should be directed to the church kitchen management team. This is important for insurance purposes.

Education sessions for those requiring supervisor training or those wishing an update will be held as needed. Please give your name to the office and the Kitchen Team will get back to you with the time of the next session. The education only takes about half an hour, but it’s a vital part of our compliance with local health and safety regulations, now that we have been approved to cook and serve food to the general public.

Register for training through the office by phoning 613 962-3636 or emailing [email protected].
