This week's lesson covers the Exile and the Return: “Then the People of God were no longer in exile. They could go home again.”
I wonder how the People of God felt when they returned home?
I wonder why rebuilding the temple was so important for them?
I wonder what the spaces are that make you feel at home?
Come, and make an Advent wreath for use in your home! This brief workshop following the Sunday liturgy November 20 is open to all ages. Candles and all materials provided (although if from a previous year you have the wreath frame, please bring it).
Come and join a discussion of ways that we at Trinity can help others. Matthew 25 is the outreach committee of Trinity, and its focus is to learn more about the needs in our community and the world, and discover ways that Trinity can help. Recommendations of these ideas are given to the Vestry. In the past, funds have been given to the Centre St. Food Pantry, two refugee families, The Fridge in Newton, and other projects. We will meet in the Sullivan Room following the service on November 27.
The Trinity Parish Vestry voted to go "mask friendly" effective immediately; that is, masks are optional at Trinity Parish as of April 14. Please note that, pending further guidance from the Diocese and local infection rates, we may in future return to requiring face coverings when we gather in person.
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.
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 2:30–6pm and the first Saturday of each month from 11:30am–2pm.
