Church by the Pond on June 17
 
Trinity's next opportunity to participate in this ministry led by Christ Church Cathedral is Saturday, June 17.
 
- We'll meet in the Trinity kitchen at 12:30 to prepare bag lunches, entering though the outside door to the kitchen.
- At 1:45 we'll bring those lunches to Bushnell Park, where we'll participate in the worship service by the pond. The celebrant will be Rev. Canon Rebekah Hatch.
- We'll distribute our lunches and personal care items following the service, and finish around 3:00.
All parishioners and families are welcome. Masks and social distance protocols are not required at this time, but optional for all volunteers.
 
Questions? Feel free to contact Percy Williamson or Penny Pearson.
That’s Rev D, Vinnie Pacileo and Barbara Roos holding a check for $7,500 – the first installment of the 2023 Preservation Connecticut Maintenance and Repair Matching Grant for historic religious properties in the amount of $15,000.00. This was truly a group effort by Rev. D, Heather Kramer, Vinnie Pacileo and Barbara Roos. There are several chimneys among the seven on campus that are in desperate need of repair.
 
The check was presented by Preservation Connecticut’s Jane Montanaro, Executive Director and Mike Forino, Circuit Rider.
 
Trinity is so thankful to have received this grant. Please take a moment to look at the acknowledgment sign that is on the front lawn.
The Sunday 8:00 am service will be in the Memorial Garden beginning Sunday, June 18th.
 
The Sunday 10:00 am service in the church remains the same.

Thursday Noonday Services is on hiatus in June, July and August and will resume in September.
