Sunday School
Trinitys Sunday School seeks to nurture the faith development of our children
as they learn about God and His grace and love for them. Our program is at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday mornings from September through
May. It is for children from age 3 through the eighth grade, ending with confirmation. The children are in age-appropriate
classes. All the children in Sunday School present a Christmas pageant for the congregation in December. The children may
sing in our Sunday services at other times. The years program concludes with a picnic in June.
Bible Class
Each Sunday from September through June, Pastor Rehm leads a Bible Class from 9:00 - 9:45 a.m.
in the Upper Room. The class is normally based on a Biblical book, although, at times, a special topic is discussed. Since
Dr. Rehm is a scholar of the Old Testament, his Bible Classes prove to be very insightful. A light breakfast is served from
8:45 - 9:00 a.m. The Bible Class is conveniently scheduled at the same time as Sunday School for children. All members, teens,
and guests are welcome to attend.
Fellowship Events
Trinity members have several opportunities each year for social interaction, entertaining activities,
and shared meals. A typical schedule usually includes a fall gathering, Oktoberfest, Christmas pot-luck, Black History dinner,
and a spring fellowship meeting featuring a program on a certain foreign country or area, for example, Egypt.
Mary-Martha Guild
The Guild is a service organization made up of women of the congregation. All are welcome to
join. There are monthly meetings, except in July and August, which are used to plan various activities. Members may also join
the Lutheran Womens Missionary League. The Guild sponsors an annual fundraising brunch to benefit Concordia College in Selma,
Alabama. It also helps with congregational fellowship meetings as needed. There are various social/service projects, such
as gathering food for needy families.
Youth Group
The Youth Group is made up of all youth from confirmation through high school age. Meetings
are usually held monthly during the winter months. Various service projects are undertaken in addition to social activities.
All youth are encouraged to join to share their faith and have a good time.
Chancel Choir
Our choir sings at the 10:00 a.m. service from September through June. Arthur Mader is
the director. Rehearsals are Tuesday evenings at 8:00 p.m. The choir always welcomes new voices.
Handbell Choir
Music lovers are invited to join. The ability to read music is not required. If you can
count, you can ring! The handbell choir performs during the winter season and on all holidays. The choir rehearses after the
church services during that time.
Other Activities
Members also have the opportunity to participate in the Flower Committee or to volunteer as
greeters and ushers.
