Central Jumuiya
A Central Jumuiya for young professionals at Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish.
Founded in 2012 by Fr. Martin, the St. Thomas More Jumuiya is a vibrant "Central Jumuiya" within Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish. Unlike traditional Small Christian Communities, we are not defined by a geographical boundary — instead, we were established to address the spiritual and communal needs of young professionals.
As young adults advance in their careers, residential locations often change. Our Jumuiya offers a constant, unshakable spiritual home: members can freely relocate while maintaining their membership, spiritual growth, and active participation in the parish family.
Spiritual Recollections
Periods set aside for prayer, reflection, and spiritual renewal together as a community.
Quarterly Home Mass
Mass is celebrated in a member's home each quarter, deepening fellowship and hospitality.
Weekly Prayers through our 12 Apostles Groups
Members are organized into twelve small prayer groups, each named for one of the Apostles, meeting weekly for prayer and mutual support.
Sunday Spiritual Sharing and Talks
Reflection, testimony, and formation talks form part of our regular Sunday gathering.
Annual Feast Day (22 June)
We come together each year to celebrate the feast of our patron, St. Thomas More.
As a community of professionals, we look to St. Thomas More for guidance and intercession. Born in 1478, Thomas More was an esteemed English lawyer, judge, social philosopher, author, and statesman who served as Lord High Chancellor of England.
He is widely celebrated as the patron saint of statesmen, politicians, lawyers, and professionals. St. Thomas More is remembered for his unwavering moral compass and commitment to his Catholic faith, famously choosing martyrdom over compromising his conscience. He serves as an inspiring model for young professionals navigating the complexities of modern careers while striving to remain faithful to Christ.

We gather weekly to share the Word of God, reflect on our lives, and support one another in our spiritual and professional journeys.
We are always delighted to welcome new members! Simply come for one of our Sunday meetings and experience our fellowship firsthand.
