Fellowship

Trinity Parish takes pride in its strong sense of community and welcoming atmosphere. After each Sunday service, members of the congregation, clergy, and choir enjoy the coffee hour to greet and meet new members, catch up, talk informally with clergy, and offer each other support. Many of the children and teens shoot hoops or kick a soccer ball around in the adjacent gym.

Opportunities for fellowship are not limited to coffee hours on Sunday. Children, teens and adults get together several times a year for potluck lunches and dinners. There is an annual picnic in the summer and apple picking in the fall. Each December, we hold a children’s Christmas workshop, sing carols, and enjoy a visit from Santa Claus. The men served pancakes before the Sunday service, during Lent this year, and the children participated with several of the teens in an Easter workshop. Easter Sunday featured a candy-filled egg hunt after the service.

The men gather every month or so on Saturday mornings at the local IHOP; they jokingly call their get-together's “Cholesterol for Christ.” The women sometimes have tea, share a meal, or go to a movie. The confirmation class has visited a Heifer International farm and had a sleep over, complete with movies, in the church.

Fellowship is an important part of who we are and what we value as a parish. As one single parent put it, “I discovered that it really does take a parish to raise a family.”
