Hello Trinity Friends and Happy Friday,
This Sunday May 10 is the sixth Sunday of Easter and Christian Family Sunday. We hope you will join us for worship either in person, on YouTube or by tuning into YourTV. For those attending in person, we welcome you to join us in the Fellowship Hall after the service for coffee, tea and conversation.
The sympathy of the congregation is extended to Jeanne Butchart and family on the death of her son Shawn on Thursday April 26th. A celebration of life will take place at a later date.
