We are welcome here! We are a community that exists to teach a life-giving and inclusive Christian Faith by nurturing spirituality through uplifting worship and service in our community. We value justice, wisdom, respect and hope.
Worship: We gather Sunday mornings at 10:30 am. The services are approximately one hour in length. Most people arrive 10-15 minutes prior to start of the service. Children ages 4-12 can participate in Sunday School each Sunday. Children may begin each service either sitting with their families or playing at the children’s activity table in sanctuary and attend Sunday School for age-appropriate activities including storytelling and crafts.
Relax: You can be assured you will never be centred out, never embarrassed. Our service is very user friendly, even for those who haven’t attended church before. We don’t use bulletins or hymn books as all of the congregational responses and song lyrics are shown on the screen, on the wall behind the choir. You can participate as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.
Dress: As you wish. Remember God looks at the heart and loves variety!
Sing: Music is a big part of our service. If you don’t enjoy singing, enjoy the words and melodies of the talents around you. The choir indicates when we stand or sit. Feel free to remain seated during all hymns.
Drinks: Are on the house! After service, you are invited to stay, linger and connect with us in our comfortable church parlour. Enjoy this time of food and friendship.
Tell: Let us know who you are and how we can meet your needs. We have greeters at the accessible entrance to guide you and answer any questions you may have. During the service we share the Peace of Christ with one another- if you’re comfortable, this is a great time to introduce yourself to those around you.
Offering: If you are a guest with us, please do not feel obligated to participate in offering. This service is our gift to you. During offering time, church attendees are invited to give to support God’s work through Trinity United. If you wish to give and receive a tax receipt for your donation, visitor envelopes are available on the back of the chairs. You can also give via etransfer trinityoffice2024@gmail.com or via Canada Helps on our website Donate page.
Audio/Visual: Our services are recorded. If you do not wish to be on camera, please sit near the back of the sanctuary, which is a camera-free zone.
Accessibility: Our facility is accessible. The best entrance to use on Sundays is the ramp entrance at the front (south side) of the building. We have reserved parking spaces on each side of this entrance. Hearing Assist devices are available in the sanctuary. For those who are visually impaired, handouts with the hymn lyrics and congregational responses in large font may be picked up at the information table on the south wall of the sanctuary (the side with the piano).
Parking: Enter off King Street and exit on to Church Street. We have a large lot with marked spaces. Free additional parking is available on Church Street (Sunday mornings only) and King Street.
