Puzzles Anyone?
One of the popular pastimes during Covid is doing puzzles. The only challenge is finding a good supply of them at an affordable price. Good news! Trillium has set up the Puzzle Exchange Table in the Upper Hall for those who love to do puzzles. Bring in your old puzzles and swap them out for ones that you haven’t done before. When those are done come back and find more waiting for you. Already there is a good supply. If you want your puzzles returned probably a good idea to put a label on it identifying who it belongs to. Only complete puzzles please (no missing pieces!) You are welcome to enter Trillium, sign in and go upstairs and exchange puzzles. Just make sure you are masked!  Thanks for staying connected and doing your part to keep everyone safe.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind?
There is a truism that many of us know, "out of sight, out of mind." As people step away from us through a change in life circumstance the tendency is for our emotional connection with them to weaken. Does this also hold true for God? Join Mark as he considers how "seeing" is the key to our recovery of God in our minds.
Trillium Re-Opening News
With the Region in Red level of restrictions, Trillium will make the following changes:
