From the Rector
Around 20 Trinity folk gathered after worship last Sunday for brunch at the Borderline Restaurant! It was great to see so many folks sharing a meal, laughing, and chatting together.
We are planning more of these monthly gatherings. The next will be Sunday, June 30th, so make your plans to join us now.
In fact, follow below to see all the other opportunities to gather, both around the diocese, and with other Trinity parishioners over the summer.
Take advantages of these events to stay connected, have fun, and keep our church vital as we await our building's restoration and renovation.
Blessings,
Pam+

Register Now for Diocesan Juneteenth Celebration |
|
|

The Diocesan Juneteenth Celebration is June 15, 2024, 11:30 a.m., at the St. Barnabas Center in Kutztown. All are invited and asked to register online: click here.
This day will include prayer, fellowship, and a dramatic reading, telling the story of an imagined meeting in Cape May, New Jersey on Independence Day, 1872, when famed Underground Railroad conductor Harriet Tubman met with Stephen Smith and William Whipper, courageous conductors and agents who led hundreds—possibly thousands—of formerly enslaved Africans to freedom through the network of the Underground Railroad, from the 1830s through the 1850s.
