Children's Ministries 

We believe children are important to the life and health of our community here at Trinity. We believe our children are integral members of the body of Christ.
As teachers and guides for the spiritual formation of children, we understand we will be formed and changed for having taught them.

Sunday school will re-commence September 7th 

Sunday School begins at 9:45 AM  
Sunday school always starts with music, beginning at 9:45 to 10 o’clock. We have two choirs, Trinity Children’s Chorale for Kindergarten through 3rd grade; this choir meets in the music room. Trinity Junior Chorale is for students in 4th grade through 12th, and meets in the basement.


Children age 2 through 5th grade, meet upstairs in the main building. Grades 6-8 meet upstairs, grades 9-12 meet downstairs in Trinity House, the gray house across the church parking lot.


We invite all children to join with us each Sunday morning during the education hour to experience the presence of God. Led by mentors and teachers who delight in sharing their understanding of faith, the children of Trinity are encouraged to express their wonder and feel free to ask their questions.

We use the Episcopal Children’s Curriculum, which was developed by Episcopalians for Episcopalians. The ECC’s goal is to assist all participants in living out the covenant made in Holy Baptism, and is designed to give children the language and skills needed for a lifelong spiritual journey. 

This is a rewarding ministry, helping our children experience the love of God within the church community, learning about our faith and church and having fun

Acolytes
Beginning in 4th grade, boys and girls are invited to become acolytes.  This important ministry gives children the opportunity to serve during Sunday morning worship, at funerals and weddings and all other major worship events in the life of Trinity.

 



Heifer International
We believe our children have a great capacity for understanding and compassion. With that in mind, the children participate in an international project raising money to buy animals for families in developing countries. Heifer animals (and training in their care) offer hungry families around the world a way to feed themselves and become self-reliant. Children receive nutritious milk or eggs; families earn income for school, health care and better housing.

 With our bake sales during the school year we have raised over $1,000 for Heifer International. The children have donated chicks, ducks, geese, bees, trees, llamas, rabbits and a water buffalo. Our very popular bake sales will be back in the fall when we hope to raise enough money to donate a complete ark!
