Welcome to st. thomas aquinas roman catholic parish in avondale, arizona

We are an established parish and school in the western suburbs of the greater Phoenix metropolitan area that in 2023 celebrated the 100th Jubilee of being a Catholic community worshiping our Lord Jesus Christ. We are a growing parish of over 9,000 registered families yet maintain a welcoming and intimate atmosphere for all who come here to adore and worship together. Our school has over 500 students serving grades Kindergarten through EightH Grade with not only documented academic excellence, but also with a strong Catholic character. We also have a vibrant Religious Education program consisting of sacramental preparation, youth programs, and adult faith formation opportunities.

Yet with all that is going on in our parish and school, we recognize that success is not measured in numbers, but in a relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
