Wrapping Up the Season of Creation with Two Special Events
|
On Sunday, October 3, Holy Trinity will join with St. Andrew's Catholic Church and University Lutheran Church for a Procession of Prayers for Creation. We will begin at Trinity Place at 1:00 pm, beginning with prayers at the SAME Garden and process first to University Lutheran and finish up at St. Andrew's. We would love to have you join us for this action of Christian solidarity in acknowledging our responsibility to tend and care for God's creation.
This year, the Blessing of the Animals in celebration of the Feast of St. Francis will take place at St. Paul's at 4:30 pm. Bring your furry, feathered, or slithery friends to be blessed. Any creatures that can fit through the church doors are invited to join us for the service in the church following. Please make sure your animals are properly restrained or contained. Please note: we cannot guarantee that having your pet blessed will improve their behavior or disposition, but it certainly couldn't hurt!

Trinity Place Service Has Resumed! A simplified version of our outdoor service has been added to our Sunday schedule. We will gather in the Pavilion on Trinity Place for a said service of Holy Eucharist (no music), which begins at 9:30 and is concluded by 10:15. The Sunday School classes join us for communion. Chairs are provided, spaced appropriately. For the comfort and safety of those who attend this service out of an abundance of caution for their health, we ask that everyone wear a mask.
Parking at Holy Trinity Correction: Parishioners may park in the 10 spaces adjacent to the lawn at Trinity Place (signs have been placed to identify those spaces), in any of the back parking lot spaces, or in the 3 spaces in front of the church office doors. An Episcopal shield decal must be displayed on or in the car and easily visible. Death Valley Towing patrols these lots 24/7 except for special events. For weekday parking, anyone with the appropriate university parking decal may park in the Clemson University spaces along the front of the church property. These spaces are also available to everyone on Sunday mornings or after 5:00 on weekdays.
