St Thomas Aquinas Reopened: 500+ at Rededication Mass

More than five hundred members of the parish and community gathered on September 8th for the rededication Mass at St Thomas Aquinas Church in Columbus, Ohio — marking the completion of a comprehensive interior renovation that has restored liturgical clarity and classical dignity to the space.

The project introduced new furnishings and liturgical appointments throughout, revised the lighting to support the building’s spatial hierarchy, and addressed deferred maintenance that had accumulated over decades. The rededication was a genuinely joyful occasion — a congregation reclaiming a building that now, again, looks and feels like a church.
