Worship ServicesAsh Wednesday at 6 pm
Holy Eucharist and Imposition of Ashes Sundays at 10:30 a.m.
Episcopal worship . . . . . . tradition with a twist! With music, scripture, prayer and reflection, we draw a liturgy from around the globe. Pray in the words from Iona, New Zealand, Kenya and more as we celebrate the one, holy church of God in many expressions. During the summer months, when life is less structured, the questions and wiggles of little ones bring life to the mix in the activities corner during service. ALL are welcome! children.together
Sundays at 9:00 a.m. children.together is a brief, participatory service for families with young children. Specifically designed with 0-7 year-olds in mind, this half-hour service helps engage children in story, song and prayer while helping to develop their sense of God. Using the Diddy Disciples curriculum, the service includes singing, a gospel story, liturgy, interactive prayers and communion. Children (and parents/caregivers!) are invited to sit on the floor to experience the service firsthand and to participate in aspects of the service including carrying the processional cross, assisting with serving communion and offering their own prayers of intercession. Happy chatter and joyful wiggles are most welcome! 
For more information, please contact Rev. Donna Maree at rectortmc@gmail.com

Upcoming EventsNeighborhood Supper
The first Wednesday each month March 4th at 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Meet neighbors over a good meal provided by everyone. This is an opportunity to build a wider community of caring simply by providing a space for conversation. Trinity is truly a center of your neighborhood! Commit to deepen your relationship with God:
Every Wednesday from 9 to 10 a.m. Begin your day with Rev. Donna and others for Morning Prayer and conversation in the Rector’s Office. Bring your coffee! Every Thursday at 5:30 - 6 pm Prepare for the weekend; Evening Prayer and reflection. Caring Stitches
Last Tuesday each month, February 25, 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. We gather as an interfaith group of needle crafters to use our talents to stitch creations such as prayer shawls, scarves, hats, gloves, quilts, blankets, lap robes and more for people living in nursing homes, hospices, shelters or on the streets. |
Rector’s MessageIf you continue to read the vitriol in the news (or watch or listen) you might by now be more than convinced that this country is doomed beyond even God’s saving grace. Or maybe you never thought you’d live in such a hate-filled society. Again!
Give a thought to Jesus’ target audiences in our stories: the poor were in dire straights; the crowd freed Barabbas instead of him; war and rumors of war abound. Jesus redeemed it all, one person at a time. We read the stories in the gospels and epistles written by influencers who heard and took up the fight; one person at a time who converted people around the globe, including you. Give up? No. Keep gathering and teaching and believing and living as if you make a difference. You do! Peace be with you this day, Donna+ Under a Rest: by Diana, Music Minister
Shrove Sunday! We celebrated the last Sunday before Lent with fluffy pancakes, joyful hymns, and ragtime. Channeling that Fat Tuesday vibe, David Castro-Diephouse drummed along to some Joplin classics like the Classical “Kyrene” Rag and The Bos’n Rag. We sang hymns about Christ being the world’s true light and shining on. We truly celebrated before we move into a more introspective, but equally beautiful, season. I look forward to exploring new music with you on Ash Wednesday and beyond! 🎶 Contribute:
Trinity exists to serve neighbors far and near. We make the spaces available as a blessing and for practical reasons ... community forums to concerts. We depend on members and neighbors and rentals to keep these buildings in good shape for all purposes.
