Christian education is for everyone, no matter whether you are just beginning your spiritual journey or have been walking Christ's way for many years. You are invited to God's house to worship and to participate in programs and ministry founded in scripture and reflecting God's power in our lives. At Trinity you will find many examples of youth and adults working to uphold the vows made in our baptismal covenant.
Children
The Godly Play curriculum is offered each Sunday during the academic school year, during the 10:00 AM service, for preschool children and school age children up to fifth grade. This creative Montessori-based curriculum engages children's curiosity and wonder while teaching them the stories of the faith.
Youth
Classes for our middle school-aged youth focus on contemporary issues, and help young people apply the teachings of Christianity to their lives.
Youth Group
Once a month on Sunday afternoon, middle school and high school-aged youth come together for something to talk about, something to do, and something to eat! They support each other and take part in mission activities.
Confirm Not Conform
This marvelous confirmation program gives young people an opportunity to discover what they believe and how Christ is active in their lives. This eight-month program has produced powerful bonds and thoughtful pilgrims on a spiritual journey.
Adult Forums
Once a month, between the Sunday services at 9:00 AM, members of the congregation or speakers from outside bring interesting and important topics for learning and discussion.
Bible Classes
The Rector teaches an eight-week Introduction to the Bible, periodically.
Advent and Lenten Series
Seasonal topics, discussed over simple suppers, offer up food for the journey.
