Sunday Recap – December 15

On Sunday, Pastor Brian Keepers preached from John 1:10-13, exploring with us the good news of Christmas: that we can finally become who God created us to be in the gift of our Mighty Savior!

This Week at Trinity

Holiday Service Times: We will have two Sunday morning worship services (9:30 / 10:50) on December 22 and 29. We will resume our normal three worship service schedule (8:10 / 9:30 / 10:50) on January 5. 

Contemplative Advent Worship: We hope you will join us for contemplative worship with communion throughout the season of Advent. Every Sunday at 4pm we’ll gather in the sanctuary to engage in a more intimate, reflective time of worship. We’ll engage the mystery of the incarnation, God with us, through liturgy, prayer, singing, scripture, and the Lord’s supper. Our last service is on December 22.
