Update on Current COVID Protocols
as of 26 June
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.

SUNDAY -
JUNE 26
9 am - 3 pm
FUN AND OUTREACH WITH “DominGO!”
We Need You!!
HOW CAN I HELP? DominGO! is three days away! Consider extending your Sunday worship time to include both fun and outreach by signing up to assist with set-up or take-down or to be an “ambassador” for a shift at one of our tables. You can have fun before or after volunteering by walking up and down Farmington Avenue and enjoying the street fair!
WHAT IS DominGO!? The City of Hartford is throwing a big party right on the church’s doorstep!
Come be part of the massive street fair “DominGO!”. Food trucks, street vendors and various businesses and organizations along the route will participate.
HOW DOES THIS AFFECT US? Trinity Church will be holding its normal 8 am and 10 am services that morning. Most of Farmington Avenue in Hartford will be closed to traffic – although cars will be allowed to cross on Sigourney Street at the direction of a traffic police officer. Our main parking for that day will be in the Salvation Army lot just north of the church on Sigourney Street. Please let those who have mobility issues park in the Ahern’s lot.
The Trinity Church lot will not be available for parking that day because it will be set up with tables representing the church, the choir school, Trinity Academy, and possibly additional friends and neighbors. We will also be hosting an ice cream truck!
WHO CAN I CONTACT? If you have questions or suggestions, please contact Mark MacGougan, Valerie Pogue, or Cathy Rowe.

Do you have gently used children’s books that you would like to donate to our DominGO! table?
We are looking to give away books to grammar school-aged children. You can drop them in the box in the Bapistry when you come to church on Sunday.

Transition to Eternal Life
Jean Peelle, a long-time member of our parish, departed from this life on June 3, 2022. A memorial service will take place at Trinity College Chapel at a later date.
We pray for the repose of Jean’s soul, now in the nearer presence of our Lord.
Father of all, we pray to you for Jean, and for all those whom we love but see no longer. Grant to them eternal rest. Let light perpetual shine upon them. May her soul
and the souls of all the departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Prayer for Pride Month
by the Rev. Helena L. Martin,
St. Paul's, Southington
God, you breathed life into the world and called your creation good.
You stretched out the rainbow as a sign of your blessing and protection,
especially after times of trial.
God of creation, Hear us.
We pray for ourselves, for all the times we forgot you or our neighbors.
Forgive us for the times we have hurt others, through our own deeds
or through actions done on our behalf.
God of mercy, forgive us.
We pray for everyone who does not yet empathize with those whose sexualities and genders differ from their own. We ask that you open their hearts to your expansive love for all people.
God of love, deliver us.
We pray that you send your blessing upon us.
Save us from the tendency to think we can do everything on our own.
Direct us to others who can guide, support, and protect us—
and help us to do the same for others.
God of joy, bless us.
We pray for the strength to pursue your will for the world,
even when we have to swim against the current.
Help us to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with you.
God of justice, send us.
