Off Track Lectionary Track
The lectionary is a wonderful thing compiled by thoughtful people. We’re all thankful for it, but this summer, we are making a slight detour. Starting May 29th, we are taking a journey through some of the authentic letters of St. Paul, starting with Philippians and then making our way through Philemon, Galatians, and I Thessalonians. Reading a book in its entirety, chapter by chapter, in worship is a traditional method of experiencing scripture in the liturgy called lectio continua. The sermons throughout the summer will focus on Paul, his epistles, and their context.

Sacred Conversations During the Summer
Trinity is full of interesting people with compelling stories to tell, and this summer, you are invited to get to know members of your community better through a series of sacred conversations. Sacred conversations are intentional one-on-one conversations designed to develop deeper relationships, help clarify personal values, and build tight knit communities. During the Sunday morning Coffee and Conversation time (9:40 AM in the South Parish Hall) you will have the opportunity to both learn how to have sacred conversations and practice having sacred conversations with your fellow Trinitarians. We all have stories to tell, come tell yours and learn from others.

Confirmation for Young People
Confirmation Classes for young people (teens and preteens) will begin this fall. If you are interested in learning more about the faith and think you might want to be confirmed, please sign up on the bulletin board in the back of the church.

Thanks to Jeff Wunrow and the Ikea elf for the transformation of the former rector’s office, n/k/a The Conference Room - now available for groups of 8 to meet in style and comfort.
