Music Ministry

"Make a joyful noise to the Lord," says the Psalmist. Our choir greatly enhances our congregational worship. The choir is made up of singers from our congregation and from the college. Weekly rehearsal is Thursday night from 7 to 8 pm, and Sunday morning at 9:30 am.

Prayer Chain

Thanks to this ministry, persons in sorrow, need, sickness, or any other adversity are kept in continual prayer.

Prayer Shawl Ministry

All members of Trinity Episcopal Church who knit and crochet are invited to become involved in a special ministry of making prayer shawls for those having surgery or in grief.

Contact Ann Sullivan with any questions you may have regarding this ministry.

Beads of Reflection

Anglican Prayer Beads are a wonderful way to deepen one's prayer life. Many formats of prayer, along with the rosary, are available. We have seen many persons come through tough moments when praying with the beads was a certain aid.

The prayer beads come in many styles, designs and material and are crafted by our own Marlene. Some of our prayer beads have made their way to Iraq for our soldiers. They also make a great gift. They can be made available for a small charge. Call the church office for further information

Vestry

For the month of January and into February we will be collecting supplies for our troops in Afghanistan. We will be sending boxes to Commander Pelikan, chaplain for the area, who will distribute the contents to the "lonely soldiers" who have nothing.
