Trillium Security Reminder

This is a reminder that you have a part in keeping Trillium safe for everyone.


When you get the code for the church you sign that contract that ensures you won't share the code or let anyone in that isn't here for a specific event.


We can all do our part to continue to be a welcoming and caring community while keeping everyone safe.

Chairs Needed

Our Knotter's/quilters are in need of a couple of chairs on wheels. They need to be in good working order. These make the job so much easier and much more comfortable for the volunteers.


If you have a chair and want to donate it please call the office or speak with a Knotter. 519-653-6601 x 1. 

Tables in Upper Auditorium

Do you or your group use the tables upstairs? If so please be sure to clean them after you are done with them. The Knotter's put farbic on these tables and sometimes they have had sticky residue on them. If we all clean up after ourselves then it's better for everyone.

Thank you.

Paul wrote 13 letters that have been preserved in the New Testament. They represent key early church teaching on Jesus Christ, Christian living and purpose. We will explore Paul's letter using relevant The Bible Project videos. Alongside the videos we will read key sections of the letters to better understand Paul's thinking on a variety of topics. Lots of opportunity for discussion and questions.

Noteworthy Items

The Trillium Table

Wondering what this is?

 

Fall Cleaning? Gifts to be re-gifted?

 

Do you have any new items, still in the original packaging that you would like to find a new home for?

 

We all have those items we received that we really don’t need but don’t know what to do with. Well, we have your solution.

 

During the Christmas Market we will have a table to sell these fabulous items and the proceeds will go towards Trillium which helps many in the community.

 

Contact Pastor Mark or the office if you have any items you would like to donate.
