After prayerful consideration, the Leadership Board here at Trinity Church United Methodist has come to the consensus to suspend in-person worship services as of Sunday, November 22, 2020.  Due to the increasing number of COVID-19 hospitalizations and positive results on testing, we are going to an online worship experience that will be available starting this Sunday.  We will review this decision at the beginning of the year: whether to return to gather in-person or continue online worship.

We will have an online Christmas Eve Worship Service for those who wish to gather with their families and participate in the online worship together.  We will not have in-person Christmas Eve Worship.

One thing to celebrate is we have not had any positive COVID-19 test results of exposure traced back to a worship service here at Trinity so far.  Praise the Lord!  And "thank you" for loving your neighbor and wearing masks, staying physically distant and adhering to the Indiana Dept. of Health Guidelines while worshiping together.  It has made a difference because we are in this together.

Trinity Church will stay connected and communicate through the website, email, phone calls, and Facebook with ministry information and updates.  If the church office does not have your latest email address, please contact the church office so we can update our files.

The church office will remain open during this time.  Should you need anything from our staff, please call the church.  We will continue to monitor and evaluate the situation to ensure that we provide pastoral care in a way that ensures the safety of all people and our community.

Remember, this is a time to lean on God.  Trust, pray and be the church to one another.  I leave you with this scripture:  "Don't fear, because I am with you; don't be afraid, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you; I will surely help you; I will hold you with my righteous strong hand."  

(Isaiah 41:10)

All of you are in my prayers, and I look forward to the day we will come together in-person once again as the church.

Blessings,

Rev. Steve
