EVENTS
Bring home a piece of TMI this holiday season with an exclusive holiday ornament, celebrating our rich history and iconic landmarks! There are only 50 ornaments left! Please make your gift before they are all gone.
TMI Episcopal, originally founded as the West Texas School for Boys in 1893 by the Right Reverend James Steptoe Johnston, D.D., has a legacy that spans over 130 years. This year’s ornament honors one of the original buildings from the West Texas Military Academy campus, preserving a piece of our past for generations to come.
Each year, TMI will release a limited-edition ornament featuring a beloved campus landmark. We invite you to build a collection that reflects TMI’s history and the special places that have shaped the lives of our Panthers. Future ornaments will include: Old Main, Alkek Campus, Ayres Hall, All Saints Chapel, Walker Innovation Center, and Harthan Hall.
In honor of TMI’s 131st anniversary, anyone who makes a gift of $131 or more to The TMI Fund will receive a special commemorative ornament, while supplies last. This is a wonderful way to support TMI and take home a keepsake that honors our legacy!
Don’t miss out—make your gift today and add a piece of TMI to your holiday tradition! If you have already made a gift to the 2024-2025 TMI Fund, please accept our sincere THANK YOU!
