Stewardship 2026–2027

Plenty Good Room

Beginning this October, we will begin our new stewardship journey, “Plenty Good Room.”

Stewardship is about more than giving—it’s about sharing our time, talents, resources, and love as we grow God’s ministry and serve our neighbors.

Join us after the 10:00 a.m. services for an extra-special Coffee Hour with information, fun, and games!

More will be coming throughout the month, so watch for it! There’s Plenty Good Room in God’s House. Pull up a chair and join us!

Tour at Old Norbourne Cemetery

Date: Sunday 11/1/2026

Time: Noon

Location:127 West South St., Martinsburg

At 12Noon on All Saint’s Sunday 11-01-2026 the Reverend Deacon Nicole Taggart will provide a tour at Old Norbourne Cemetery at 127 West South Street Martinsburg.

Old Norbourne was established in 1772 and is the site of the original Trinity Episcopal Church. It is the permanent resting place of people who witnessed the beginning of our country, when our country was divided and when Martinsburg had emerging industries. Old Norbourne also is associated with local legends. All are welcome.

Deacon Nicole enjoys local history and is a docent at the General Adam Stephen House. Your questions about the history of the cemetery and local legends -including the alleged ghosts- are encouraged.

We ask Trinity congregational families to consider adopting one Sunday each year to provide refreshments for Coffee Hour.

It doesn't have to be complicated—simple is better! Cookies, chips, fruit, muffins, or another easy treat are all welcome. The goal is simply to have a little something to enjoy while we visit and connect with one another.

A few Sundays are still available. If you would like to adopt a Sunday, please call the Parish Office to sign up.
