Weekly Announcements • February 5

Sunday School

This week's lesson: The Parable of the Sower. “The sower also sowed seeds in the good earth. When the seeds pushed their little roots down into the good earth, they could go all the way in. They grew and grew.”

I wonder who helps you grow strong roots?
I wonder what you think is needed to grow strong and healthy?
I wonder who you have helped sow?

A Message from Daryl Mark

The memorial service for David Nelson last Saturday was wonderful, heartfelt, and the work of many hands and minds. Daryl Mark, her family, and the Nelson family give thanks for the care and support of the kind members of Trinity Parish.

When available, a video and audio recording of the service will be posted on Trinity's Youtube channel. Look for an announcement here and on the parish Web site for details to that effect. In the meantime, the the order of service may still be downloaded here.

Trinity Parish Continues to Follow 'Mask Friendly' Protocols

The Trinity Parish Vestry voted in 2022 to go "mask friendly"; that is, unless otherwise indicated, masks are now optional at Trinity Parish. Please note that, pending further guidance from the Diocese and local infection rates, the church may in future return to requiring face coverings for in-person gatherings.

Pledging During a Pandemic

Thank you to all who continue to send in your pledge! Your faithfulness in keeping up your pledge helps Trinity Parish stay “in the black” during this time, and we are grateful. Pledges may be mailed to Trinity Parish at 11 Homer St., Newton Centre, MA 02459.
