This week's lesson: The Parable of the Mustard Seed
On Tuesday, January 30, at 7:00pm, the Treasurer and members of the vestry will host a Zoom meeting to discuss the 2024 budget. If you would like to know more about the budget, this meeting—rather than the February 4 Annual Meeting—is the time to be informed and ask questions. There is a handout for the meeting that you can receive by emailing David Nincic. See you then!
Please have one person from each household fill out an image permission form in the Dunbar Room for the new year 2024. This form lets Trinity know your preferences regarding your image being published on the various communication platforms like Facebook, E-Weekly, etc. Please also let the office know if you explicitly DO NOT give your permission for images to be used. Names of minors will never be placed next to images used.
A hard copy of the current parish directory has been placed in the Dunbar Room for your convenience. Please take the time to look at your entry in it to update any of our contact information. When complete, we hope to publish this contact information in a printed booklet as well as a secure part of the parish website. Please stay tuned for more information.
We invite you to take part in a new initiative that we are establishing at Trinity. Using the online service Lotsa Helping Hands, we are organizing a group of volunteers who are willing to help fellow parishioners based on needs that arise. Go here for more information.
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.
Located at 11 Homer Street in Newton Centre on the lower level of Trinity Church, the Pantry is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and a member of the Greater Boston Food Bank. It is open most Tuesdays from 2:30–5:30pm and the third Saturday of each month from 11:30am–2pm.
New households are asked to fill out the Online Pantry Registration Form or print and fill out this paper form. If you live in Newton and wish to be added to the CSFP delivery list, send an E-mail with your name, phone number, city, and family size. If you live in Boston, click here to find resources available for those in need of food.
Please remember in your prayers: the Episcopal parishes of Newton, our clergy and people; the Centre Street Food Pantry, its clients and staff; Joseph, our President; Maura, our Governor; and Ruthanne, our Mayor. Pray also for Joan and for peace and a return to calm in South Africa; for peace in South Sudan, the Palestinian territories, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, and Yemen; comfort and care for all migrants and refugees; All Saints Anglican Church, Winterton, KwaZulu-Natal; the Khethani Christian Fellowship, Khethani Township, KwaZulu-Natal; B-READY Afterschool staff, teens, youth, and families; comfort and healing for Krista, Cynthia, Ellen, Dotty, and Margaret; comfort in dying for Carolyn; for the soul of Rick; for the soul of David; for the soul of John; for the soul of Vickie Elizabeth; for the soul of Eleanor; for the soul of Sylvia.
