Welcome to Trinity

Grow Closer to God – Be Part of a Community – Make a Difference in the World

Trinity is a bustling place. We welcome you to the Trinity community and invite you to get involved.

Bishop Chane Visit All ages have opportunities outside Sunday worship to grow closer to God. On Sundays during the non-summer months, a Christian Education class for teens and adults meets at 9:15 am. Additional teen and adult study opportunities take place seasonally, such as the Lenten soup and study on Wed. evenings. During the 10:30 service, youth are invited to leave the service after the Song of Praise and return at the Peace for special study focusing on one of the readings for that day. One can start attending any of these classes at any time!

Merry Mixer Crowd One can see as the Peace is passed during any service that Trinity is a social place! This hospitality is extended to coffee hour after the 10:30 service. Throughout the year, we have pot luck suppers (called Merry Mixers) and other social gatherings. Our sense of community grows as we work together. There are many groups with a social or service mission:

  • The Women of Trinity meet the second Tuesday of each month at 10 am (with the exception of July and August). Occasionally the meetings are replaced with lunch outings. The mission of the Women of Trinity is to serve God by working together for Trinity Church with hearts and hands, to serve Him by reaching out to the community, and, when possible, by trying to alleviate suffering in the greater world. They strive towards these goals, while supporting each other with true friendship, kindness and compassion.
  • The Youth Group has merged with several other local Episcopal Churches. Typically two events are scheduled each month, usually on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month. Young adults, grades 6-12, are welcome!
  • The Men's Group meets for breakfast, camaraderie, discussion, and parish-wide support projects at 8am on the 1st Saturday of each month. All men, sons, grandsons and friends of Trinity are welcome to attend these meetings.
  • The Trinity Book Club meets periodically to discuss books chosen by the group.
  • The Trinity Choir practices several Sundays a month after the 10:30 service and performs usually one Sunday a month. Sometimes the youth will also prepare a special musical are dramatic selection. Easter Alter
  • The Altar Guild consists of four teams of volunteers, each which serves one week a month, to arrange the flowers and prepare the church for each service.
Don’t see the perfect group for you – start something! You’ll be sure to find others at Trinity with the same interest.

Outreach is a big focus of Trinity, as one can see on the Outreach webpage. Trinity offers many opportunities to help others and fulfill that important need we have to pass on some of our blessings to others. One of our annual highlights is the Fall Festival -- a major fundraising project to support Trinity and its Outreach projects. This delicious ham and oyster dinner, plus antique sale and much more, takes place on a Saturday each fall.

Ladies in the Kitchen The Pastoral Care committee helps Trinity members and families in their time of need. The Lay Pastoral Care group visits parishioners in hospitals, nursing/rehab homes, assisted living, or those that are homebound. The Kitchen Ministry provides luncheons/receptions for Trinity parishioners and their families following a funeral service. They also assist by organizing meals to help parishioners who have recently been in the hospital. The Episcopal Senior Ministries Liaison provides information from the Diocese for seniors.

Finally, it takes many other groups to make a church run smoothly, such as the Welcome, Property, Finance, Cemetery, Liturgy and Preservation Committees. All would welcome your input and talents!
