Lent at Trinity

Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, February 17, with three nearly identical services in our beautiful Chapel: 7:30 am, 12:00 pm, and 7:30 pm. Lent is a time when Christians traditionally adopt a spiritual practice to aid in reflecting more deeply on their lives with God. During Lent, Trinity offers a number of programs designed to meet this goal, including Lenten Small Groups that meet throughout the week, Sunday morning Forums, and Monday Evening Classes, as well as ongoing opportunities like Centering Prayer, Healing Services, guided Labyrinth Walking, and Morning Prayer. For more information on any of these programs, visit our Activities and Events page.

And before Lent begins, don't miss our annual Shrove Tuesday Pancake supper! For details, see the Spotlight box below.

Trinity Spotlight

The world is in crisis...besieged by poverty, pandemic disease, social injustice, gender inequality, environmental degradation, and political oppression.

Jesus said, Love your neighbor as yourself.

What does it take to love your neighbor in a global community?

In six sessions on Sunday mornings, starting February 21, we will gather for Forum Time from 9:20 - 10:20 am to explore the critical needs facing our world today and to try to understand how we as Christians can move faith into action, starting now and starting where we live.

Each session will include an inspiring DVD presentation featuring teaching and interview excerpts from Christian leaders who represent a variety of perspectives. We won't always agree with what is said. We might even be taken out of our comfort zone. We will practice openness and humility as we engage in discerning how we can bring hope to those suffering from poverty, social injustice, disease, oppression.

Please join us for any and all of the Forum sessions!
