Priests and parishioners catch up after a Sunday service at Trinity Church.

Worship & Congregation

Worship opens us to the wondrous reality of our loving God, gathering and focusing us on what matters. It’s at the heart of everything we do at Trinity Church. Through church services, educational programs for all ages, and the shared life of our congregation, we are inspired to seek a life of deep meaning.

Jesus Calls Us to Creative Resistance

As Christians, we’re not meant to separate ourselves from “worldly” issues to stay safe and unscathed; we’re called to do the opposite. “We are called to participate fully in our communal life,” writes Trinity’s Faith Formation team, “in a way that allows God’s love to flow through us — for the benefit of all.”

Friendship Is at the Heart of the Gospel

True friendship is not transactional, but it does come with obligations. Any mutual relationship, in fact, requires everyday relinquishments from both sides. “Just as Jesus makes sacrifices for his followers out of love,” writes Trinity’s Faith Formation team, “so must we be willing to ‘lay down our lives for our friends.’”

Sunday Sermon, The Very Rev. Dr. David Monteith: “Sit Together and Talk”

The Very Rev. Dr. David Monteith, Dean of England's Canterbury Cathedral, looks to the story of Philip and the Ethiopian from the Acts of the Apostles to guide us in communicating and connecting with those who hold differing opinions, past experiences, and labels from us. He references Jesus's refusal to perpetuate a cycle of violence and revenge, and the wisdom the Bible provides for standing with excluded peoples.
