Welcome to our Community

For almost half a century the Catholic community called St. Thomas More served the American Embassy and the Diplomatic Community.

We have been and still are blessed to include members from many nations.

The diplomats have meanwhile given way to United Nations officials and we also have people who are here in Bonn with multinational corporations, students from Bonn University and many local German people in our Church each week.

Our Parish life centers around the Eucharist, with Mass held in English language every Sunday in Bonn at 09:30 hrs (Heilig-Kreuz Church) and in Cologne at 13:00 hrs (St. Mauritius)

Every Tuesday and Thursday Mass is held in the meeting room of our Rectory at 19.00 hrs - unless announced otherwise. (Lucas-Cranach Straße 24)

Confessions are heard before and after Sunday Mass and, of course, by appointment.

Pastoral Programs:

We offer Religious Education programs for everyone, children as well as adults. The Adult Coffee and Conversation Program is an opportunity to discuss subjects that we are all interested in as Christians. These topics range from church history, to morality, to public service. If you would like to join us, the door is always open. Youth Programs are conducted in cooperation with our sisters and brothers from the American Protestant Church.

We encourage all parishioners to be involved in community life and are always glad to welcome people willing to serve as Ushers, Altar Servers, Lectors and Teachers of Religious Education (or substitutes) as well as new members for our social committee or parish council - and last but not least - new singers or musicians for our Choir.
