A promise made, a promise kept.

Join us as at Trinity as we continue to prepare for the coming of our Savior with our exploration of the “family tree” of Jesus and the lighting of the Joy candle on the Advent wreath.

This Sunday we’ll reflect on how God gave the world cause for Joy when He sent His Son, Jesus, to be our Savior.

Please note these upcoming events:

● Share the peace, hope and joy of Christ’s coming by inviting a friend, neighbor, co-worker or family member to worship with us this Christmas. Christmas invitation cards with service times are available in the Foyer, Narthex and Gathering Space.

● Be sure to watch your email for the daily link to our Advent Devotional series, “ The Jesse Tree”. Take a few minutes and start your day with prayer and reflection to prepare your heart for the coming of our Savior.

Jesse Tree home ornament kits are available in the Foyer, Narthex and Gathering Space. A new supply has been created for those who did not get one last week. Here’s a link that you can use to print your on ornaments if you choose. The ornaments are two sided. CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD.

Christmas Poinsettias are available for purchase to adorn the sanctuary on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. If you wish to pay for your poinsettias online choose the Flowers for Sanctuary fund/sub-fund Poinsettias. The deadline to order is this Sunday December 15th.
