Beloved siblings in Christ,

How is it that today marks two weeks until Christmas eve? By now we've all faced the reality of not having in-person services for Christmas. As sad as that makes us, we have chosen to pour our energy into others. As a church, we have turned our attention to the ways in which we can make Christmas special for others. You have donated toys for children in foster care, and you baked cookies and brought gift cards for immigrant families. You have reached out to friends and parishioners who are lonely or homebound. You have let us know when someone needs our support, and offered to provide it. We are continuously amazed by the loving kindness shared by our community.

No, there won't be in-person services for Christmas. But, as we now see, church happens everyday. In Christ, The clergy and staff of Trinity Episcopal Church +
