Our Mission

The Mission of Trinity United Methodist Church is to nurture one another and our neighbor in the love of God, serve our community, and encourage persons to become Christian disciples and good stewards of God’s creation.

Trinity UMC is a Reconciling Congregation. Welcome to this place of worship and gathering of Christian seekers. May your worship experience be a source of spiritual renewal as you seek to faithfully live out God’s call upon your life. Our congregation strives for open minds, open hearts and open doors, toward all people without regard to race, age, gender identity, sexual orientation or physical abilities.

Please silence all cell phones.

Hospitality this month: Many volunteers host social hour this month.

Season of Creation Ocean Sunday

There's nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline,

no matter how many times it's sent away.

― Sarah Kay

The flowers on the altar are provided by TUMC Members. Please sign up to bring flowers on the Sunday of

your choice.

Blessed by God, We Respond

Prayers of the People The Sacrament of Holy Communion In the United Methodist tradition, the table is open to anyone seeking to know God. We use “intinction”, dipping the bread in the cup. You may bring your regular offerings forward when you come.

The Great Thanksgiving The Lord be with you, And also with you. Lift up your hearts. We lift them up to the Lord. Let us give thanks to the Lord, our God. It is right to give our thanks and praise.

...we praise your name and join in their unending hymn: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of power and might. Heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the Highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the Highest. ... as we proclaim the mystery of faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again!

The Lord’s Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we Forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen. Announcements
