About Us
St. Thomas Episcopal Church is a small house of worship located in rural Bedford County between the Towns of Bedford and Big Island. The Church has a long history of serving the communities in this part of Virginia dating back to the decade prior to the Civil War. St. Thomas was established in 1844. We are part of The Episcopal Diocese of Southwestern Virginia.
Though currently without a full-time priest, we continue to have worship services every Sunday at 9 A.M. Some services are Holy Eucharist with a priest supplied by the Diocese, and some services are Morning Prayer with the leadership and participation of members of our congregation.
Our congregation can best be described as open-hearted, welcoming and congenial folks who have a compassion for worshipping in this beautiful pastoral setting.
