Forum Series: Upon These and From These Stones
Sun., 9/20 & 9/27, 11:15 am, Lloyd Forum
Launching our 2026-2027 Program Year and anticipating our buildings’ 150th anniversary (on February 9, 2027), the Rector, the Rev. Morgan S. Allen, will introduce our theme and its roots in Matthew 3. On September 20, Morgan will offer scriptural, historical, and architectural context for our building, at the time of its creation and construction, and in the years since. On September 27, Morgan will consider what has come “from these stones” of Trinity Church in the previous centuries, and what God hopes we as a congregation might accomplish in our own day and during the next 150 years.
