CHURCH OF THE ADVENT and ST. THOMAS DEAFCHURCH
IN THE COMMUNITY

Our Commitment to keeping the Community Safe.

Safe Church, Safe Community Traning

Our clergy, staff, and some church members are required to take classes through the Diocese of Missouri, "Safe Church, Safe Communities" in an effort to ensure the safety of children and vulnreable adults who attend our services and programs.

ABOUT US

Since 1957, the Church of the Advent Episcopal Church has been a thriving force in the City of Crestwood.  Feeding the hungry, providing meaningful worship and growing a faith-filled community have been our mission.  Come see us in action!

​

In the fall of 2021, St. Thomas Deaf Church joined when their Vicar, Rev. Emily Hillquist Davis, became the Rector of Advent.  Always thinking of others, the members of Advent invited the members of St. Thomas to follow Rev. Emily and we became "Partners in Christ". 

 

St. Thomas Deaf Church was started in 1876, founded by Austin Ward Mann, who was a Deaf priest.  St. Thomas is one of only three Deaf Episcopal Churches left in The Episcopal Church, but the Episcopal Conference of the Deaf (ECD), a national organization, is hoping to change that statistic.  You can learn more about the St. Thomas and the ECD by looking at our HISTORY page.
