A Note from Pastor Doug

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ at Trinity. I pray that God from His glorious unlimited resources will empower you with inner strength through His Spirit and that Christ will make His home in your hearts as you trust in Him. I pray that the roots of your faith will grow down deep into God’s love and keep you strong so that you might discover how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love for you is.

We have many people in our midst who need to receive the love, hope and forgiveness that is ours in Christ. May you be a witness and an ambassador unto the Lord Jesus Christ through your daily life. 

Now, all glory goes to God for all that we will do in His name. May we remember that He is able to do far more than we can ask, think, or imagine. To Glory be the glory!

Pastor Doug

Once again, thank you so very much for your continued financial support of the ministry of Trinity Downtown. We look forward to serving with you in 2025!

Teacher Appreciation week in May) the class sponsor visits their assigned CDC classroom to deliver treats, small gifts, baked goods etc. along with a word of encouragement for the teachers and staff and an invitation to attend our weekend services.
