Vestry Presentation – Goals for 2024

Come and learn about the Vestry’s goals for Trinity for 2024, including the Chorister Program, the Catechumenate, identifying new and local opportunities for outreach, “intentional family building,” and maintenance projects.

Funeral for Bette LaMacchia April 26

The Burial liturgy for Elizabeth (Bette) LaMacchia will be held at Trinity Parish on Friday, April 26, at 11:00am. Parking will be available on the street and in the lot behind the Greek Evangelical Church (1115 Centre St, Newton, MA 02459). A reception will follow the Liturgy in the Dunbar Room.

Trinity Parish Continues to Follow 'Mask Friendly' Protocols

The parish vestry voted in 2022 to go "mask friendly"; that is, unless otherwise indicated, masks are optional at Trinity Parish. Please note that, pending further guidance from the Diocese and local infection rates, the church may in future return to requiring face coverings for in-person gatherings.
