Our Patron Saint
Our parish is named after St. Thomas, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ. According to tradition, St. Thomas traveled to India in A.D. 52 to preach the Gospel, establishing the Christian faith on the Malabar Coast. His unwavering faith, culminating in the declaration "My Lord and My God" upon seeing the resurrected Christ, is the foundation of our spiritual heritage. We seek his intercession as we continue the apostolic mission in Montreal.
