This Week at Holy Trinity |
Our Holy Week and Easter services were a blessing to everyone who was able to attend, in person or online! As a parish, on Sunday, April 24, we will express our gratitude to everyone who contributed their time and talents to supporting those wonderful services. All Ushers, Lectors, Intercessors, Eucharistic Ministers, Musicians, and Technicians are asked to attend your regular worship service this Sunday so that we can thank you personally. The Sunday School hour will feature a Behind-the-Scenes Tour of Worship at Holy Trinity. Come and learn about the various efforts that go into making our worship reverent and beautiful.

Eastertide, the fifty days of the Easter season, is traditionally a time of celebration. As we’ve been polishing up the calendar for mid-April to early June, we’ve noticed that there are several occasions that call out for us to come together in celebration. Recognizing that the Sunday Breakfast/Formation time is the most logical time to gather members of our 8:00 and 10:30 congregations, we have decided to use that time in the remainder of April and May to celebrate!
We will honor, recognize and celebrate worship ministry volunteers, Canterbury students, mothers, graduating seniors, our beautiful grounds and gardens, those whose lives were cut short by war, and our lovely “Mother Church,” St. Paul’s.
-
April 24: Behind the scenes tour of worship. Meet the Worship Support Teams who make our worship possible each week.
-
May 1: Canterbury Sunday. Our semi-annual tradition returns with a breakfast feast to honor our Canterbury students.
-
May 8: Mimosas for mom and Mother's Day Photo booth. Bring the whole family to get a great photo for Mom
-
May 15: Rogation Sunday. A traditional procession around the property to thank God for our beautiful grounds (and those who care for them) and to pray for bountiful harvests and fruitful ministries.
-
May 22: Senior Sunday. Another breakfast feast and time to honor all of our Holy Trinity “kids” who are graduating this year!
-
May 29: Hymn Sing. Gather in the Nave at 10:00 to sing those great national hymns, as well as hymns for peace.
-
June 5: Pentecost and Homecoming at St. Paul’s (no gathering between services, but a picnic will follow the 10:30 service at St. Paul’s)
Please note that these activities will replace the Study of the Book of Acts that had previously been planned for Eastertide.

Circle of Welcome Several HT parishioners have responded to the call for volunteers to "circle around" the New American family who will be arriving in Clemson next week. We have been made aware of a need to supply groceries for this family for their first three weeks. If you would like to contribute to this effort, please bring grocery gift cards to church this weekend to drop in the collection plate. If you prefer to write a check, please make it payable to "Discretionary Fund" with Circle of Welcome in the memo line.
Sheri Belk will present about the life and experiences of Anna Maria Clemson at St. Paul’s, Pendleton on Thursday, April 28 at 11am. To register for this free event, visit eventbrite.com/e/272388771147.
Mary Lou Sigsby and the rest of the St. Paul Committee would like to invite any and all from the congregation to join them for the next meeting on April 28 at 5:30pm in the Parish Hall. They would like to share about the committee and get the congregation’s input and ideas.
Carolina Bronze presents “Magic of the Bells” on May 1 at 7pm at Holy Trinity. The ensemble will present music from a wide variety of musical styles: classical, Broadway, jazz, easy listening to original music just for bells. This concert has something for everyone.
Sunday morning breakfast will now be served from 8:45-9:45am so that servers will have time for clean-up and will not be late for worship. Please be considerate of the time constraints.
We are still in need of volunteers to provide Wednesday night meals for our Canterbury students on the following date: 5/4. Dinners are prepared every Wednesday and served at 6:15 in the Parish Hall. You can sign up here: https://bit.ly/3G1faOc if you would like to help. Call or email Sue Smink with any questions: 864-557-4500.
