Welcome Jen Pommerenke
Meet JenPomm!
Hi everyone! I’m “JenPom,” the new Parish Life Coordinator & Youth Minister at HTEC, and I wanted to give you the briefest of bios so you can learn a little more about me.
My past adventures have included being a Program Director at a 3–9 week sleepaway summer camp, working on the youth team for Carnival Cruise Lines, directing Green Tea Shakespeare, and working as an associate at an outdoor retail store. I can’t wait to begin this new journey at HTEC and get to know all the wonderful folks who make this such a vibrant community!
I love being outside—camping, trail running, and rock climbing are some of my favorite ways to spend time. Someday, I hope to thru-hike New Zealand’s Te Araroa Trail and the Camino. I also love reading and watching epic stories like The Lord of the Rings, Redwall, and The Chronicles of Narnia. Even better is getting to share adventures with friends along the way.
I’m a big Premier League football fan (GO SEAGULLS! ⚽). Growing up, I played soccer and tennis and ran cross country and track. I was even once asked to be the kicker for the boys’ football team my senior year of high school!
Laughing and connecting with people is a great delight for me. I especially love spending authentic time listening, learning, and creating delightful, intentional programming for young people. Helping young people feel seen, known, welcomed, and excited to be part of a community is something I care deeply about.
Outside of work, you’ll most likely find me camping, rock climbing, trail running, reading, traveling, cooking, visiting museums, performing in local theatre productions, or spending time with friends.
I’m looking forward to a radical year together and to getting to know so many of you along the way!

Labor Day Weekend Liturgy Event
Join us for a creative and inclusive event to bless our careers as offerings to God. We will also offer small "thank-you" tokens to share with individuals like clerks, waiters, cashiers, or anyone who may feel undervalued in their profession.
Feel free to bring an item that symbolizes your daily work, whether you are currently employed, retired, work from home, or work outside the home. Let's come together to receive blessings and give thanks for our diverse paths of labor.
All are invited to come as you are and rest from your daily labors.
Join the magnificent Handbell Choir for rehearsals starting Wednesday, September 9th from 6-7pm in the worship space. We welcome new members with open arms! Experience the magic as the Handbell Choir performs during the 10:30 liturgy on special Sundays throughout the year. Let the melodious fun begin!
The Adult Choir is tuning up for action on Wednesday, September 9th, starting at 7:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. Get ready to rock the Sunday morning 10:30 a.m. service and dazzle at festive occasions like Christmas Eve and Holy Week. Joining this musical crew is the perfect harmony for bonding with your parish pals. For more info, give a shoutout to the maestro Dr. Jae Won Kim! All are invited to make a beautiful noise.
Looking for a little creativity and connection?
Join us for Prayer Shawl & Looming!
No experience? No problem!
We’re all about sharing laughs, stories, and a few crafty skills. Whether you're a pro or a complete beginner, all are welcome.
We meet every second Wednesday of the month in the cozy Vesting Room—a unique spot where the acolytes and clergy get into their fancy attire before the worship service. It's conveniently located on the left, just before you hit the hallway to the restrooms.
So come for the fun, stay for the friendships, and let’s make something beautiful together!
Be The Church Sunday
You don’t have to have church all figured out.
If you’ve ever wondered, “Where do I fit here?” or “How do I get involved without committing to a bunch of stuff?” — Be The Church Sunday is for you.
After worship, we’re turning the church into a Ministry Fair—a chance to meet people, discover what’s happening around here, and explore ways to connect and make a difference.
There’s no pressure and no expectation that you have to know the “right” way to do church.
Come with your kids, grab a snack, ask questions, and see what catches your interest. Whether you have five minutes to help, a passion you’d love to share, or you’re simply looking for a place where your family can belong, there’s a place for you.
And the vestry is excited to share something else: we’ll be unveiling our brand-new church logo and mission statement! It’s a fresh expression of who we are and where we believe God is leading us as a church community.
Come curious. Come as you are. Find your people. Discover your place.
Let’s Be The Church—together.

All Creatures Walk Invitation!
Walk with us in the All Creatures Walk!
Holy Trinity parishioners are invited to join All Creatures Walk, the first event from Common Procession, on Sunday, October 4 at 3:00 p.m. in downtown Fayetteville.
Held for the Feast of St. Francis, we’ll experience familiar streets differently as we pay attention to the people, places, beauty, and needs within the community we share. The procession will include music, prayer and ritual, story, costumes, and collecting and carrying supplies for unhoused neighbors along the route.
There are lots of ways for Holy Trinity folks to take part: come walk, serve as an acolyte or cross-bearer, represent the food pantry and help distribute food bags, carry supplies, or dress as part of creation—animals, sun, moon, wind, water, and more. Children, adults, and families are all welcome.
Some of the procession is already planned; some will take shape through the people who join us. Bring what you have—or simply bring your curiosity and presence.
Interested in taking on a role or helping shape the procession? Contact Jeremy at figurativelyspeaking@gmail.com or comment on this post in Realm.
Come walk. Come notice. Bring what you have.
Coming Out Ecumenical Liturgy
Celebrating National Coming Out Day
Join us for a Coming Out Ecumenical Liturgy as we celebrate National Coming Out Day and honor the courage, authenticity, and dignity of LGBTQ+ people and their loved ones.
This special service will bring together people from across Christian traditions for a time of prayer, reflection, music, Scripture, and community. Together, we will give thanks for the ways people have found the courage to live authentically, remember those whose journeys have been difficult or whose voices have been silenced, and recommit ourselves to creating communities where every person is welcomed, affirmed, and loved.
Whether you are LGBTQ+, an ally, a family member, a friend, or simply seeking a community of faith and welcome, you are invited.
Come as you are. Bring your stories, your hopes, your questions, and your whole self.
All are welcome.
If you are involved with Sunday School, Youth, or a Vestry Member, please check your inboxes for an invitation to begin your safe church training. Invitations to other ministry volunteers will be sent out in August.
The Stewardship Committee focuses on the creation, care, and connection of God's gifts to our parish. This includes creating sustainability by identifying parishioners' spiritual gifts, connecting people and ministries, and educating them about financial giving. If interested, please call the office at (910)484-2134 or email admin@htechurch.org.
