This Church was originally located in Station Street, Lawnton on land donated by Stephen Lawn.

Local identity, James Todd, was given the job of building the Church for the contract sum of 130 pounds ($260).

The Church was commenced on August 25, 1888 and opened on St. Thomas’ Day December 21, 1888.

The silky oak and cedar pulpit, built by James Foreman and originally used in Samsonvale Station Homestead, was donated to the Church by Mr. William Joyner.

After St. Thomas was last used in 1984, all recoverable contents, furniture etc. were moved to the new St Faith’s Church in Samsonvale Road, Strathpine. The alter rails were reconditioned and set up for use in the new Church.

A small Chapel named St. Thomas’, consecrated on 26th November, 1989 was built to house the alter, front, and other items of furniture from St. Thomas’.
