From May 30, 2010 through Labor Day Weekend, we have one worship only at 10:00 a.m. The first Day of Summer Sunday School on the Book of Revelation for interested youth and adults starts on June 6 at 8:45 a.m. (Please see schedule at the bottom of this page.) Our regular Sunday School classes for all ages will start in the Fall.
According to the Book of Order, education is one of the most important responsibilities of the church; it lies at the heart of many of the Great Ends of the Church. Nationally, this priority on education is reflected in the Presbyterian Churchs 72 church-related colleges and universities and its 12 seminaries.
The founding fathers of the United States of America, the majority of whom were Presbyterians, believed that an educated citizenry was integral if the new U.S. government were to prosper. Likewise, Presbyterians believe that an educated clergy and membership are just as important to the life and health of the church. Therefore, education is important to Presbyterians both in secular academic disciplines and in theology. As members of the Body of Christ, we are expected to continually develop our understanding of what we believe, why we believe it, and how those beliefs affect how we live our lives.
A crib room and nursery are provided for infants and toddlers, from birth to age 2. Classes are available in the Fall for pre-school children, ages 3 and 4; for kindergarteners, from age 5 to third grade; for grades four and five; and for youth ranging in age from sixth grade to high school. The makeup of classes changes each year depending on enrollment.
Normally during one week in the early summer, Trinity offers Vacation Bible School in the evening for children. In 2010, VBS will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. from June 6 through 10.
Anyone willing to share their expertise and talents as Vacation Bible school teachers for our preschoolers through 6th grade, or help with our Wednesday Family night (see below), please call Barb Hoyle at 268-2008 (cell) or 445-9116 (home) or Sara Moreland at 445-2527.
Children of all ages are invited to join us for creativity, fellowship, and fun as we learn about our Christian faith: preschool through elementary and youth 6th grade through 12th grade.
Family Night at Trinity is happening on the first and third Wednesdays. Join the CE committee and others at 5:30 PM for light dinner, storytelling, singing, crafts and fellowship. Adults and children are invited to spend time together.
The Explorer Class continues its series of discussions on the book Jesus, Uncovering the Life, Teachings, and Relevance of a Religious Revolutionary by Marcus Borg. The series will last until mid-May. Discussions will be led by Don Bay, Joan Bay, Marcia Lake, Georgia Morehouse, Markita Price, Bob Duncan and others.
The Library Class is studying the Gospel of Luke. We would love to have new class members join us. Luke was a physician and very orderly in his presentation of the good news of Jesus Christ. In this study we should learn what is at the heart of our faith. Come join us for a life changing experience.
