Stewardship Prayer Vigil
This past Sunday, October 6, marked the beginning of our stewardship season here at Trinity. With the season now underway, our stewardship chairs Jonathan and Lisa Vipperman have asked for our prayers. In response, Trinity is organizing a 24-hour Prayer Vigil , and you are invited to participate.

The Vigil will start at 7:30 am on Wednesday, October 16 with Holy Eucharist in Keenan Chapel, and ends at 7:30 am the next day. After the Keenan Chapel service kickoff on Wednesday, parishioners will begin praying in 30-minute shifts through the 24-hour period. Seibels Chapel will be available until 5:30 pm on Wednesday for prayer, and afterwards prayers will continue throughout the night in people’s homes.

Please note you do not have to pray in Seibels Chapel during the day on Wednesday if it’s inconvenient for you - the important thing is that you pray during your shift. To sign up for a half hour shift please contact Wade Stinnette at wadestinnette@wallickinvestments.com or Lannie Stinnette at lmccs@bellsouth.net . If your schedule permits, you could even take two shifts and fill an hour; the shifts do not have to be back-to-back. To read more about the vigil on our website click here.

Thank you for supporting stewardship at Trinity through the Prayer Vigil!
Adult Formation Class Offerings Starting October 13
Beginning this Sunday, October 13, we switch to the next five weeks of classes for our adult formation series on Sundays. The new classes that begin this Sunday include:
  • A Relatable God with Dean Jones and Canon Grosso: God may seem far off from daily concerns and challenges, but Christians have discovered it's possible to meet a vivid God who comes close to inspire and help. This revitalization of faith happens through exploring and understanding the confession that God is a trinity of persons. We will explore how the doctrine of the Trinity can open our imaginations to a gracious, relatable God. This class meets in Satterlee Hall.
  • "Lord, Teach Us to Pray" with Canon Lockett: The disciples of Jesus once asked him, "Lord, teach us to pray" (Lk 11.1-13). The disciples did not ask "Teach us to perform miracles" or "Teach us to preach." No, the disciples asked one thing of Jesus: "Teach us to pray." Many of us want to know the who, what, when, where and why of prayer. If you are curious or have questions, come join us and learn about the journey of prayer! This class will meet in Room 114.
  • Growing in Christ will continue until December 15, and will continue to meet in the Stirling Room.
For more information about Adult Formation, please click here , or contact Canon Andrew Grosso at agrosso@trinitysc.org .
