Welcome to St. Thomas More Catholic Parish

St. Thomas More Catholic Parish is located at 8501 Calumet Ave. in Munster, Indiana. It is more than a building; it is a welcoming community for everyone. The parish is built on faith, family, and education. While honoring its Catholic heritage, it invites people of all backgrounds to join.

Where Faith Meets Community

The parish community includes families with young children, retirees, and people from many cultures. This diversity creates a close‑knit atmosphere where neighbors become friends and friends become family. Members always have support, whether they need a listening ear, a prayer partner, or a helping hand.

Mass Times for Every Schedule

St. Thomas More offers several Mass times to fit busy lives. Early‑morning services suit early birds, evening Masses are for those who work later, and weekend options let families gather together. The Sunday Mass welcomes people from all walks of life, creating a vibrant and joyful worship experience.

Sacraments: Milestones of Faith

The parish provides the full range of Catholic sacraments. Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Anointing of the Sick, Matrimony, and Penance are all administered with care. These sacraments help members grow deeper in their relationship with God and with one another.

Faith Formation for All Ages

Learning does not stop after Sunday school. St. Thomas More offers programs for children, teens, adults, and seniors. Catechism classes explain the basics of the faith, while Bible study groups explore scripture together. Every person can ask questions, share insights, and grow spiritually.

Ministries That Make a Difference

There are ministries for many interests. The Knights of Columbus supports charitable projects. The Pro‑Life Committee promotes the dignity of life. The St. Vincent de Paul Society provides food, clothing, and financial help. These groups serve the wider community and give volunteers a sense of purpose.

Vibrant Youth Programs

The youth ministry offers events, retreats, and service projects. Teens meet for games, music nights, and faith‑building activities. The program nurtures spiritual growth and creates lasting friendships, making the church feel like a second home for young people.

A Warm Welcome for Visitors and Newcomers

First‑time visitors are greeted with open arms. Whether they are curious about Mass, interested in a ministry, or ready to volunteer, a friendly member is ready to guide them. The parish encourages newcomers to attend a service or simply sit in the pews and experience the community spirit.

Outreach That Extends Beyond the Walls

St. Thomas More partners with local charities, homeless shelters, and disaster relief agencies. Food drives, clothing collections, and fundraisers happen regularly. These efforts show that love of Christ goes beyond Sunday services and lives in everyday actions.

Resources Right at Your Fingertips

The parish offers practical support. A food pantry helps families in need. A thrift store sells gently used items at low cost. Counseling services provide emotional and spiritual guidance. These resources care for the body, mind, and soul of every member.

Faith in Action: Living the Gospel

Parishioners participate in charity drives, fundraising events, and community festivals. By working with local organizations, the parish amplifies its impact. Authentic Christianity is shown through love in motion—helping neighbors, supporting the vulnerable, and making a positive difference.

Education and Lifelong Learning

Education is a core mission. St. Thomas More offers classes and workshops for all ages. Art, music, budgeting, parenting, and health topics keep everyone learning. Lifelong education prepares members to face life’s challenges with confidence.

Why St. Thomas More Stands Out

For those seeking faith, family, and education, St. Thomas More offers a welcoming atmosphere. Its diverse ministries, youth programs, and community service create an ideal home for individuals and families alike. Members deepen their Catholic faith, find supportive community, and make meaningful contributions.
