Greetings Trinity Friends on this very November day. This Sunday we will celebrate All Saints Day in our worship service. It is a time to reflect on and honour those “saints” in our lives whom we have lost. A reminder to our families with Sunday School children that we will meet at 9:50 in the Sanctuary to prepare for a special procession!
Don’t forget to set your clocks back an hour BEFORE you go to bed on Saturday night. Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday November 3rd at 2 am.
There are a few announcements to share with you as well as a “save the date” list at the end of this email. We are approaching a very busy season of events. If you don’t already do so, you may want to follow us on Instagram or Facebook or subscribe to our digital calendar! You can click on this link to find it. Trinity Calendar
