Weekly Announcements • May 14

Sunday School

As we celebrate Mother's Day, we will reflect on the story of Mary: "She was truly the Mother of God. People still feel close to Mary. They name churches after her and make pilgrimages to places where she seems especially close."

I wonder if you pray to Mary?
I wonder how you feel connected with the Holy Family?
I wonder how you celebrate your mother and your special relationship?
I wonder how your mother makes you feel loved?

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 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.

Centre St. Food Pantry Wish List

Located at 11 Homer Street in Newton Centre on the lower level of Trinity Church, the Pantry is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and a member of the Greater Boston Food Bank.  It is open most Tuesdays from 2:30–5:30pm and the third Saturday of each month from 11:30am–2pm.

New households are asked to fill out the Online Pantry Registration Form or print and fill out this paper form. If you live in Newton and wish to be added to the CSFP delivery list, send an E-mail with your name, phone number, city, and family size.

For Your Prayers
