This Week at Trinity

Painting Project – Hospers Campus: As we get ready to relaunch the Hospers Campus, we are looking for some (semi) skilled painters to help us on Saturday, January 18. Join us at the Hospers Campus (501 Main Street in Hospers) to help us make the facility an even more welcoming space. We will have some supplies available, but if you have a brush or a roller, bring it along!  Register online or at the Welcome Center.

Living A Better Story: Join Rachel Valentine on Wednesday nights for four weeks of “Living a Better Story”. We will explore the sacred work of acquainting with the emotional soul – the self that is the combination of emotion, memory, physical body, and connection with others. We invite you to join us as we create space and invite curiosity around the stories of our soul and how Scripture might inform our stories. This class will meet January 15 – February 5 at 6:30pm in Adult Rooms 3&4.  Please register online or at the Welcome Center.
