From the Rector
Thanks to everyone who helped with the Ministry Fair, especially for those that made ministry displays, for Parish Life that added chili and lots of sides with the promised hot dogs, and all the people who spent time in the Parish Hall after both Sunday services. I was impressed by the creativity demonstrated with the displays. They remain in the Parish Hall for you to explore!
36 people filled out Ministry Time and Talent cards, which included commitments to new ministries and long established ones as well. If you didn’t fill one out, please do so!
Our “next big thing” is the Blessing of the Animals on Sunday, October 4th at 10:30am. There will be no Eucharist at this service, but we will still have our regular 8:15am service.
Blessing of the Animals is a GREAT service to invite your neighbors to, especially if you know that they are pet people!
Please take some of the flyers that will be in the Narthex with you to share!!!
Let’s get the word out about this special yearly service!!!

Sunday Sweets Sign-Up
Our Sunday Sweets calendar is looking a little bare—and without volunteers, we may not have refreshments on some Sundays! Providing treats is a simple but meaningful way to offer hospitality and help create a warm, welcoming time of fellowship after worship.
Cookies, donuts, coffee cake, or your favorite treat—all contributions are appreciated. Please check the sign-up sheet in the Narthex and choose an open Sunday.
Treats may be dropped off in the office by Thursday at 2:00 p.m. or brought to the kitchen by 8:00 a.m. Sunday.
Thank you for helping keep Sunday fellowship sweet!

Blessing of the Animals
Join us on Sunday, October 4 at 10:30am — Parish Hall & Courtyard
Join us for a joyful and beloved tradition at our 10:30 AM worship on October 4, when we’ll celebrate the Blessing of the Animals.
We will meet in the Parish Hall with worship, joined by our animal companions (please ensure they are leashed or crated). The service will include individual blessings of each animal friend.
If your companion is large, you’re welcome to bring them in a trailer. If they’d find the gathering overwhelming, feel free to bring a photo to be blessed in their honor.
Our 8:15 AM service with Holy Eucharist will take place as usual.
All are welcome — two-legged, four-legged, winged, finned, or furry!

Small Group Bible Study
Join us Monday, October 5, at 5:30 p.m. as we begin our new Small Group Bible Study, Walking Through the Gospel of Mark. Rev. Kurt believes the best place to begin studying the Bible is with Mark — the shortest, earliest, and most urgent of the four Gospels.
Come explore Mark’s Gospel with us and deepen your understanding of Jesus and His ministry. The study will meet on Mondays at 5:30 p.m., October through May. All are welcome!

Women’s Book Study
The Trinity Women’s Book Study resumes our Fall schedule on Tuesday, October 6, 2026. Please join us as we begin a new journey exploring Sue Monk Kidd’s novel The Book of Longings. Historical fiction, this novel tells the story of Ana, a bold and educated young woman in first century Galilee.
Meetings are the first and third Tuesday each month (October thru May) from 1:00 – 2:30 pm in the Parish Hall classroom.
We invite all women to join us and enjoy the community of our group. Our table is open to all; diversity of backgrounds, perspectives, and ideas is welcomed and celebrated. If you have questions, please reach out to Karen McRight or Lisa Alexander.
