What a joyful day! On Sunday, December 3 through the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, Trinity welcomed 6 new members into the family of God. We love you, Del, Jess, Lexi, Dan, Cesar, and Niko, and look forward to sharing this ministry with you. May the light and love of God surround and fill you!

Please join us this Thursday evening for Queer-led Worship. Not only is there a wonderful guest preacher, but worshippers will be treated to the smells and taste of freshly popped popcorn during fellowship after worship!

Trinity was proud to collaborate and partner with Moms Demand Action, on Monday, November 13th. It was a community awareness meeting to prevent gun violence in South Carolina.

What a wonderful and special Thanksgiving lunch we had yesterday! Many thanks the the Parish Life committee for all their hard work and everyone who volunteered to help make it a success!

Trinity celebrated our fourth annual Transgender Memorial Service and we were pleased to partner with our friends at GUUF - Greenville Unitarian Universalist Fellowship (SC). We stand with our transgender siblings and vow to continue working for their safety, protection, and justice in this broken world. May we all have eyes to see and hearts to believe that our trans siblings are beloved children of God created perfectly in the image of God.

Trinity was a strong presence at the GOAL 2nd annual Community Problems Assembly, held on November 6, at Christ Church. GOAL interfaith coalition will keep its focus on affordable housing and mental health, during this 2nd year. Pastor Crowell was one of those confirmed as a nomination for the Executive Committee. The next event will be the Research to Action Kickoff on November 27th.

Trinity family, friends and neighbors enjoyed a Fall Fest on October 26th. The evening included amazing fall food (hotdogs, caramel apples, s’mores and more), fall games and activities, and wonderful fellowship.

As the holidays approach, the Food Pantry could benefit from your generous support. Please consider bringing donations to worship this Sunday.

Please consider joining other affirming communities of faith in worship tomorrow evening at Greenville Unitarian Universalist Fellowship. This will be a meaningful service lifting up the importance of belonging and inclusion in our faith walks.
