Parking is plentiful for our weekend Masses. Our largest lot is on the north side of the building with access to our main entrance. There's also a smaller lot on the south side of the building.
Both parking lots include marked handicap parking spaces and automatic door openers.

We love our hospitality after Mass, a tradition that began at our first Mass in 1990! Most weekend Masses, we serve coffee, lemonade and doughnuts or cookies after Mass to provide a casual way to meet new people and maintain your St. Thomas Becket community.
