St Thomas' Church
Lowry Drive
Houghton Regis

https://www.allsaintshr.co.uk/st-thomas.html
St Thomas', also known as St Thomas Meeting House, serves both as a church and as a community centre. Depending on the circumstances the "church part" can be partitioned off, allowing the space to be used for other activities, from fitness classes, to music rehearsals or meetings of community-based organizations.
The building was opened and dedicated in June 1988, but it traces its origins to the beginning of the previous decade when a Christian presence was established at Enfield Close to serve the communities of Parkside and Brookfield. St Thomas' can accommodate about 60 people between the main hall and the meeting room. It also includes a spacious kitchen, disabled facilities, central heating, and 11 parking spaces. Regular, long-term hiring is available. For enquires about hiring St Thomas' please contact the Parish Office.
We are committed to serve the people of Houghton Regis and North Dunstable, sharing the faith with everyone, and building up a flourishing, Christ-centred community. Our mission, worship, spirituality, and vision for the future are firmly rooted in Anglo-Catholicism, in a way that seeks to inspire people in discovering God and grow into relationship with him.
