This week's lesson: The Parable of the Good Shepherd. “They know the sound of my voice. So when I call my sheep from the sheep hold, they follow me. I walk in front of the sheep to show them the way.”
I wonder who shows you the way?
I wonder if the Good Shepherd has ever called your name?
I wonder who you have helped show the way to?
A memorial service for parishioner David Nelson will be held Saturday, January 28 at 11:00 am. Please join us as we celebrate David’s life here in Trinity Parish as well as at the Parish of the Messiah. A luncheon reception will follow, and David’s photography will on display throughout Trinity's sanctuary, chapel, and parish house. Parking will be permitted on Homer and side streets, as well as in the Greek Evangelical Church parking lot across Homer Street. Masks will be required (and provided) for the service, which will also be livestreamed via Zoom.
Trinity Parish's 2023 Annual Meeting is taking place in two parts: the first in December, when elections were held, and the second on Sunday, January 29, 2023, when the Investment Committee will make its report and the Treasurer will present the 2023 budget. There will also be a preview, held online, of the budget Monday, January 23, at 7:00pm, at which time questions will be answered by the Treasurer. To join the budget preview online, you will need to connect via Zoom (passcode, if needed, is available in the most recent E-weekly).
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.
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.
