Responding to The Undertow… In the introduction to Jeff Sharlot’s new book, The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War, he writes: “This book of stories of difficult people doing terrible things is a register also of grief and its distortions, how loss sometimes curdles into fury and hate, or denial, or delusion. Especially delusion.” I envision this Worship Series as a response to his descriptions of our nation based on Kate Bowler’s understanding: “We are meant to be each other’s village.” June 4, 2023 Marching Orders for the Village Trinity Sunday June 11 Being Seen June 18 Coming Off the Sidelines Father’s Day June 25 Truth Finds Its Way July 2 Carrying Water July 9 Behind the Village Masks July 16 Seeding the Spirit Rev.

We seek to be a progressive, wholeheartedly inclusive, intergenerational Christian community where all are welcome no matter where they are on their spiritual journey, a community that makes clear and visible that our faith perspective is open-minded and grace-filled;
We seek to be a joyful place where people are roused, inspired and spiritually renewed by theology that both challenges and comforts, with quality preaching, worship, music and education; We seek to express our love for God in mission by our love for neighbor, for children, and for creation, for the sake of a just world for all. Trinity Church is an Open and Affirming congregation. We welcome all people, regardless of gender, economic circumstance, sexual orientation, racial or ethnic background, into the full life and ministry of our church. This is a hospitable place.
