The Last Sunday of the Church Year is swiftly approaching! As is tradition here at Trinity, we will take the Last Sunday (November 23) to reflect on the liturgical calendar - to look back at what God has done and what He continues to do.

If you’ve ever wondered why we follow the liturgical calendar and what the changing colors mean, come join us for worship! Saturday, November 22 at 5:30pm at the School Campus and Sunday, November 23 at 8:00am and 10:30am at the Downtown Campus!
