Trinity Tidings



All Saints' Day



November 1, 2026

From the Rector

This year the first Sunday of November is actually the 1st, which means All Saints Sunday is truly All Saints Day!!!

To celebrate this reality we are doing something special and fun by hosting a chili cook-off!

This is a GREAT opportunity to invite friends, family and neighbors to Trinity! It will both showcase who we are as a worshiping community and how we have fun together in our shared lives in Christ!

Please invite people to:

Bring a crockpot of homemade chili (advance notice to the office at

830-693-2822 or office@trinitymarblefalls.org is very helpful.)

Join you in going to the Church service.

Plan on tasting as many chilis as possible, filling out a simple scorecard to help pick the winner.

A morning where they can learn about some of the saints connected to The Episcopal Church.

See the announcement in the news and bulletin for more information, and help us to make this a fantastic Sunday at Trinity!

2027 Pledge Update

Thanks so much to everyone who already submitted their 2027 Pledge! We have a good base of 59 pledges returned so far totaling $288,357, but we are still missing about a third of the pledges from last year. 

Please faithfully consider a pledge for 2027 and return the card to the office as soon as possible. Let Rev. Kurt know if you want to discuss it.

Faithfully,

Rev. Kurt

NAMES NEEDED For All Saints Sunday on November 1st.

This Sunday, Nov. 1 is a very special day in the church year, All Saint's Sunday. We begin worship with our moving Litany of All the Saints, and we remember in our prayers those we love who have died over the past year. 

Because time is of the essence, please email your loved one's name to the office by Thursday at noon.

Don't forget to turn your clocks back 1 hour

LAST CALL for Chili Cookers!!

DEADLINE TO SIGN UP is this Thursday, Oct. 29 by NOON!

Please let Rev. Kurt or the Church Office know if you will bring a crock pot of chili for tasting, so we can lower the chance of blowing a fuse! Please additionally tell us if your chili is Vegan or Gluten Free.

We will have a fun time after our 10:30am service with a Chili Cook-off this Sunday, November 1st!

— Everyone is invited to bring a crockpot of a chili they have made (no prepackaged mixes)

— All chilis will be given a number to hide the cook/artist

— Everyone will be encouraged to spoon a sample of each chili and fill out an evaluation form

— We will tabulate scores and celebrate the winners as everyone then eats enough for their lunch! (We will have hotdogs for non-chili eaters.)

We will provide fixings and beverages to complement the chili, and EVERYONE will hopefully have fun! 



Women’s Book Study

Women’s Book Study continues with Sue Monk Kidd’s The Book of Longings, a historical novel set in first-century Galilee.

We meet the first and third Tuesdays, 1:00–2:30 p.m., October–May, in the Parish Hall classroom.

All women are welcome to join us for conversation, community, and diverse perspectives! Questions? Contact Karen McRight or Lisa Alexander.
