News from the Diocese

Dear Trinity Parish Family,

We are entering a pivotal phase in our transition process and invite you to participate in an essential Parish meeting on Sunday, July 28th, immediately following the 9:00 service. Gail Lebert, the consultant assigned to Trinity during Tim Hodapp's sabbatical leave, will lead our discussion.



This meeting is a unique opportunity for us to come together, share our thoughts, and shape the future of our parish community. Your presence and input are vital as we discuss our identity, aspirations, and the next steps in calling our new Priest In Charge.

To ensure everyone is comfortable and well-fed, we will provide box lunches. We hope all members of our church community will make their best effort to attend.

Let's unite to chart a positive and inspiring path forward for Trinity Parish. We look forward to seeing you there!

God's Peace,

Jacqui Lucier and Leslyn Clark, Wardens

Summer Zoom Bible Study on the Parables

Led by Mark MacGougan

This will be an informal, non-academic Bible study looking at one parable each week. How does it work as a story? What else could have happened in the story? What do we take from it today?

No need to do any homework or pre-read. Just join us (by Zoom) if you’re able!

Mondays 5:30-6:30 pm

7 weeks from June 10 through July 22

Third session: June 24 - The Workers in the Vineyard

Trinity Book Club

Looking for an informative and entertaining summer book? Try Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson! It's "a masterpiece of the imagination, using fictional eyewitness accounts to tell the story of how climate change will affect us all." Trinity's Book Group will discuss it on Friday, August 9th, 7:00-9:00 pm. All are welcome to attend Book Group, whether for one time or many! The meeting will be hosted by Heather Kramer; please let her know if you plan to come. (heatherjk@1989@gmail.com).

Trinity Gardeners

Trinity Church's grounds require a significant effort to keep them looking at their best over the summer. The Property Team is looking to expand the group of people who help with this work. With this goal in mind, the group is being renamed "Trinity Gardeners". Our hope is that this will provide more visibility to the Parish about the upkeep of the grounds through periodic updates in the eVoice and on the notice boards. A further goal is to allow us to become better stewards of the memorial garden which is going to be used for services throughout the summer. If you have an interest in gardening, helping with this work is also an opportunity for fellowship with fellow parishioners as well as seeing the fruits of your labor as the plants and shrubs grow over the summer. Please contact Peter Green (pmgreen76@gmail.com) for more information or to volunteer to join "Trinity Gardeners". Thank you.
