Hello Trinity Friends,
We hope you will join us for worship this Sunday at 10:30 for worship, followed by coffee and conversation in the fellowship hall after the service. In Sunday School, the children will have an opportunity to play some cooperative games led by Abhi and Rowan (two members of the youth group).
There are many activities and events coming up. Some announcements and events are highlighted below but please see your weekly bulletin or our socials for more information.
During coffee hour, be sure to pick up your tickets for the 100th Anniversary events: there are some tickets left for the Stained Glass tour and Mustard Seed’s Happily Forever After but the Hops and Hymns only has a couple left – until we see how many tickets the other churches have sold. We are also still in need of volunteers to help with the 100th Anniversary events. If you can help out, please sign up. Cindy Brownlee will have the tickets and sign up sheets in the Fellowship Hall after the service.

Evensong at Emmanuel United Church
Theme: “The Grace of Becoming” – Wednesday May 28 – 7:00 pm
May invites us to notice what is quietly growing — in the earth and in ourselves. After the stark clarity of winter and the turbulent blooming of early spring, May offers a moment of steadier emergence. It asks us not to rush. It reminds us that becoming is a slow process — often invisible, often uncomfortable, and always necessary. This Evensong honours the art of waiting, the courage of not-knowing, and the beauty of unfolding in our own time.
