Update on Current COVID Protocols
as of 10 July
COVID Rates are falling in Hartford County:
- We have returned to the Common Cup on Sundays and will offer wine and grape juice. There will be no intinction (dipping into the cup).
-
Masks at indoor services are strongly encouraged.
- We will continue to wear masks in the office in all common areas, and those who have private offices may request visitors to wear masks. Please be respectful of staff wishes.
As a reminder, there are various levels of comfort in our community with masking, handshakes, and hugging, so please be respectful of others whose decisions differ from your own.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and flexibility. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to Rev. D. or a member of the Vestry.

Transition to Eternal Life
Asker Downer, a member of our parish,
departed from this life on July 6, 2022.
We extend sympathy to the Downer family
and pray for the repose of Asker's soul,
now in the nearer presence of our Lord.
A funeral service for Asker will be held
at Trinity on Thursday, July 14 at 11:00 A.M.
Father of all, we pray to you for Asker, and for all those whom
we love but see no longer. Grant to them eternal rest. Let
light perpetual shine upon them. May his soul and the souls
of all the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.

Bring Your Reusable Water Bottles
to Church
As the weather has been heating up on Sundays, have you found yourself wishing you could easily get a cold drink of water? Now you can! There is now a water dispenser for cold, room temperature, and hot water located in the Baptistry near the Baptismal Font. (The Baptistry is the area behind the lectern in the front of the Sanctuary.) We will not be providing disposable cups so please bring your reusable water bottle.

Fresh Flowers
for the Altar
Summer is upon us and the Flower Guild is looking for fresh cut flowers to adorn the altar for the months of July and August. Only one arrangement is needed! Share the bounty of your garden with Trinity. If you are interested, please contact either Percy Williamson (860-922-6271) or George Chien (860-690-7024) for dates you are available.

In / Out Board – Farmington Avenue
The next time you pass through the Farmington Ave. entrance, please take a moment to look to your left. You will see the In / Out board that is on the wall. This board helps to identify who is in the
church/education wing and when. As we welcome back groups to the church in the evenings and on weekends, it’s important to insure that we are all aware of who are in the spaces.
If you are the group leader, please take a couple of moments to update the board when you enter and exit the building.

Special Prayer Request
A member of our parish, Jacqui Lucier has advanced kidney disease and is in need of a transplant.
As we pray for Jacqui, we also ask that you prayerfully consider being screened as a potential kidney donor. For more information about living organ donation and to sign up to be screened, please visit nkr.org/SBB483. Please encourage your friends and family to consider donor screening.
To hear Jacqui talk about her illness and need for a transplant, watch this clip that has aired on local news.
