Welcome
to Trinity
 At the beginning of
June the world seems to turn towards summer vacation and travel to
visit new places, family, and friends.
If you are looking for a church to visit or one to make your
home parish, I extend a very warm invitation to come and join
us.
Trinitarians are
deeply connected to each other through worship, fellowship,
outreach, and service - nothing unusual. We are also committed to
understanding the gospel of Christ as meaning radical inclusion
-less usual, finding ourselves most comfortable on the progressive
edge of the wider church. We don’t pretend to have the
answers, but we’re committed to honoring the questions.
Our differences make
for a rich and lively experience of God’s grace - we don’t
always agree on theology, but are united in our commitment to deeply
meaningful worship. We love our traditional liturgy with its
chant and incense, enhanced now by our brand new Quimby organ.
We also love to have fun. Join us in Tower Grove Park
on Sunday, June 28th, for our annual “Mass on the Grass” before the Pride Parade, and if
you’re so inclined, join us in the parade too.
Each week at the
services I say, “Wherever you are on your journey of faith there
is a place for you here at Trinity, for it is God who calls us to
the altar.” Because we have known God as a God of love,
communion is offered freely – you don’t have to sign up or sign
on the dotted line or swear to a doctrine. You will meet people
like yourself who have a deep well of spiritual concern and an
intelligent curiosity. Many have found Trinity to be an oasis of
acceptance we didn’t think was possible in organized religion. We
are an Oasis congregation and are affiliated with the Center for
Progressive Christianity.
We know that
sometimes discipleship is costly. Often it means giving up
privilege, sharing resources, and supporting ministry with our time
and our money. Always, our love of God and confidence in our
support and love for each other keep us connected on the journey
that is the pilgrimage of our lives. I invite you to join us on
that journey, and I look forward to meeting you.
Blessings,
Anne Kelsey

Dear
friends,
Planning
for our "Don't Come Classic" has truly been a labor of love. For an
event that isn't really occurring, this has involved the efforts and dedication
of a lot of people. First of all, to KMOX for having the idea and giving those
of us on the station a chance to make a difference in our community. To Overhead
Door of St. Louis, for financing our events, before we even told them what each
of us were going to do. Now THAT is trust! To Steve and the crew at the Trinity
Episcopal Food Outreach that stands as a shining example of how we need to treat
our fellow man; I am awed by your dedication!!
And last, but not least, I'd like to
thank you for your support with our efforts and for playing well with others.
Hope you enjoy the poster and please continue to lend a hand when you can.
See
you on the radio...

John
