Happy New Year!
December 31, 2025 | Vol. 53

Start the New Year With Intention:
Spiritual Resolutions List - From the Yale Youth Ministry Institute.
After you have rung in the new year and the celebrations are done, you may find yourself writing out a New Year’s resolution list. You may be thinking of your physical health, but have you added practices to support your spiritual health?
We have created suggested practices for youth and adults to help support you spiritually throughout the year and paired it with a scripture verse. We suggest tackling the list with family, friends, or as a whole church community.

Karaoke Night

Whether you grab the mic or cheer from the crowd, Trinity Karaoke Night is the place to be! Bring a friend or two along to join in the fun!
This is a zero-pressure zone:
✨ No talent required
✨ Group singing encouraged
✨ Singing optional—fun is mandatory!
Snacks and beverages will be on hand to keep your energy up. If you’d like to chip in, a tip jar will be out to help us purchase new speakers dedicated to our Karaoke nights. So warm up those vocal cords (or just your clapping hands) and come join us—you don’t want to miss it!

It's Time for Game Night!
Friday, January 23rd • 6:00pm
Game Night is almost here, and we’d love for you to join us! Bring a friend (or two!) and enjoy an evening of laughter, friendly competition, and community. We’ll have a variety of games ready to go—classic favorites and something for everyone.
All you need to bring is yourself, a friend, and your favorite snacks to share (or keep all to yourself—we won’t judge 😉). Whether you’re a serious strategist or just in it for the fun, Game Night is a great way to relax and connect.
Come play with us—we can’t wait to see you!

2025 Annual Meeting
January, 25th • After Our 10 O'clock Service
All who worship at Trinity are invited to gather on the 25th for our Annual Meeting following the 10am service. We’ll share a meal together, review the 2025 Annual Report, and spend time reflecting on our hopes and goals for the year ahead. We’ll also elect new Vestry members as current terms come to an end.
Please note: There will be only one worship service for this Sunday at 10am.
This year’s meal will be a potluck brunch. If you’re able to contribute a dish, please let Rev. Tricia know what you plan to bring.
Questions about the meeting or the Vestry? Just ask any staff member or Vestry member—we’re happy to help!
