Christian Formation is an ongoing process which begins in the nursery and continues throughout our lives.
At Trinity, regular Christian Formation opportunities include:
+ |
Classes for children and for adults on Sundays at 9:30 a.m. in the Parish Hall, September through May. |
+ |
Discussions which follow the Wednesday morning mid-week service of Holy Eucharist, led by the Rector. The topics for these discussions are chosen by the participants. |
+ |
Classes which prepare individuals for the rite of Confirmation. This series of classes may be scheduled after consultation with the Rector. Confirmations usually occur during the Bishop's annual visitation to the parish. |
| + | Third Tuesday study group, which meets in homes. The topics for these studies are chosen by the participants. |
+ |
Other classes may be offered at various times throughout the year. Please see the Home Page for any current classes. |

"Almighty God, the fountain of all wisdom: Enlighten by thy Holy Spirit those who teach and those who learn, that, rejoicing in the knowledge of thy truth, they may worship thee and serve thee from generation to generation; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the same Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen."
