St Thomas' Church celebrated its 40th year in 2009. It was formed
on the estate of the now demolished Coppy Hall estate. The owner of
the hall at the time was named Thomas, hence the choice of choosing
St Thomas as the patron saint of this church.
St Thomas' is a very busy and vibrant contemporary community
church, which is part of Aldridge Parish and the Diocese of
Lichfield (Church of England). The style of the building is
purposely designed to be used by the community, and happily it is
very widely used pretty much every day of the week.
As a church we have a membership of around 200 (so expect to get
heavily muggled if you turn up on a Sunday morning!).
Each month we serve around hundreds of children and their
families with a full range of children's and families ministries
which is our speciality.
We hope you enjoy discovering this little gem of a church tucked
away at the top end of Aldridge. If you have any children with you
feel free to wander round to the park behind church where there is
a small play area, and if you pop down to the bottom field you
could feed the horses some carrots (The horses are abandoned and
looked after by the good will of the local community - they're very
friendly and lovely).
