Message to Trinity -- Christmas Cantata, Christmas Eve Worship, Christmas Day and New Year's Day Worship


Greetings Trinity Family,

I hope this email finds everyone doing well. We have many up-coming activities at Trinity…please check out what we have going on.

OUR CHRISTMAS CANTATA

Everyone is welcome to join us on Sunday for our annual Christmas Cantata. Come hear the Christmas story “sung” to us. Bring your family, bring your friends.

If you are ill, though, and have any illness symptoms, please stay at home and enjoy the cantata on our Trinity facebook page. We have had an up-swing of people who are testing positive for the flu and Covid.

BLUE CHRISTMAS SERVICE

We will gather for our annual Blue Christmas service on Thursday, the 22nd of December. This is a service for those who are struggling with the Christmas season – those who are grieving, those who are sad, and those who are lonely. We will gather to pray, to mourn, and to battle the forces of darkness…together.

CHRISTMAS EVE WORSHIP

We will gather at 7 pm on Christmas Eve, December 24, for our annual Candlelight and Communion worship service.

CHRISTMAS DAY WORSHIP

On Sunday, December 25, we will gather at 10:15 for a service of lessons and carols. Everyone is invited to wear your pajamas. This will be a family-friendly worship time – there will not be nursery care or Sunday School.

NEW YEAR’S DAY WORSHIP

Come to church on Sunday, January 1, 2023 to start the year out with God. We will gather for another opportunity to hear the Christmas story and sing our favorite carols. This will be a family-friendly worship time – there will not be nursery care or Sunday School.

CHOIR REHEARSALS

Everyone in 7th grade and up is welcome to join Trinity’s choir. We will rehearse every Wednesday at 7 pm. Ralien and our Worship Committee are excited about all of the upcoming music we will sing as we worship God together. We will not have Choir rehearsal on Wednesday, December 21.

CHURCH CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAWS TEAM

If anyone is interested in joining a team to review the church’s Constitution and By-laws, please see either Bill Vogl or Pastor Amelie.
