Here’s what’s happening this week at Trinity!
We started our new 4-week series called, “I’ve been meaning to ask…” last weekend. Don’t forget that we are also adding a 1-hour small group study, beginning at 9:15 on Sundays (before worship), that more deeply explores our topics and scripture. Ely Peters will be leading a college student/young adult session in the church library. Pastor Charisse will lead another session for adults in the Gathering Place. (Please note that there is no childcare provided.) We hope to see you there!
