Trinity Episcopal Church welcomes you! 

When you join us for worship, you will be greeted and given a bulletin that will help guide you through the order of the service. Episcopal services are based on The Book of Common Prayer which will be the red book in your pew.

During worship, you will be able to follow along from the bulletin with the corresponding page numbers in The Book of Common Prayer. There will be several opportunities where you can enjoy or join in singing hymns. Music and words for the hymns are found in the blue hymnal in the pew.

Episcopal worship is centered around Communion, also known as The Holy Eucharist. All are invited to come forward and receive the bread and wine during communion, or if you would prefer you can come forward to receive a blessing by the priest or simply remain seated.

Services start at 10:00am on Sundays. Service of Holy Eucharist typically lasts about an hour. Service of Morning Prayer is usually half an hour.

After service, please join us for refreshments and fellowship downstairs in Morrill Hall. A chairlift is available if needed.

If you would like more information about the Episcopal Church or how to join or get involved please see a church member or send an email to secretary@trinityware.org.

 
Message from the Senior Warden
 
January 9, 2026
 
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ:

Happy New Year and A Blessed Epiphany to all!

What's that saying, time marches on? Christmas has come and gone, the baby has been born, the wise men have brought their gifts. And now we set about to spread the message and the love of God given to us.

I found this poem by the late Rev. Howard Thurman who for many years served as the chaplain at Boston University and was an advisor to Martin Luther King, Jr.:

When the song of the angels is stilled,
When the star in the sky is gone,
When the kings and princes are home,
When the shepherds are back with their flock, 
The work of Christmas begins:
     To find the lost, 
     To heal the broken, 
     To feed the hungry,
     To release the prisoner,
     To rebuild the nations,
     To bring peace among the people,
     To make music in the heart.
 
What a profound message! The themes of Advent: Hope, Peace, Joy, Love manifest into the Miracle that is the birth of Jesus, Emmanuel- God with us! But the hope and peace and love and joy and the miracle do not end there. We are called to carry that Spirit on, to transform the world by embodying compassion, mercy, and love as ambassadors of peace and justice. The real mission of Christians starts when the festivities end. We are called to be the "hands and feet of Christ" in the world's darkness.  

May it be so, the world needs the light of Christ.

Peace to you-
Suzanne
