  • Proclamation: Trinity is hosting a 2 day Reading of the Gospels and Acts on Mar. 18 and 19. The scriptures are divided into blocks and each start at a specified time. There will be a luncheon on Saturday to be shared by participants. Please let me know if you would be interested in reading  (individual or groups) and/or helping with host/hostess duties. Time slots will be filled on a first come, first serve basis. Please feel free to come and listen at anytime.  Why? Because: "All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work.
