Trinity this week – November 17, 2024

Hello Trinity Friends,

This Sunday following our 10:30 am worship service, you are invited to stay for a hotdog lunch and a front row seat for the Santa Claus Parade (which passes by our Ferguson street doors).  Hotdogs are by good will donation.

Come early for a hymn sing this Sunday at 10:15 am.  Please let us know if you have a favourite hymn you’d like to hear – the choir leader will ask for requests!

During worship, the Sunday School children will begin work on their Christmas Pageant with our Director Darlene Laferriere. We will be casting roles, if your child would like to participate but will not be here this Sunday, please let us know so we can reserve a role for your child!

We are heading into a very busy season – your Advent Newsletter is attached below- please grab a cup of coffee or tea, and enjoy a good read!  Some additional announcements and upcoming events are included below. Please keep reading!
