St. Thomas Aquinas Parish began as a Newman Club in 1943, and was established as a parish in 1963. The Dominican friars have been serving in Charlottesville since 1959. The Dominican friars also serve as campus ministers at the University of Virginia. The friars are currently planning to build a priory to support a larger Dominican community; you can learn more about the St. Thomas Aquinas Priory campaign.
