Holiday Magic + Live Music + Sweet Tea’s Signature Warmth
Journey with us through an evening of reflection, music, and storytelling with Behold, an intimate concert that blends stirring melodies and meaningful narratives. Running December 4-6, 2025, at Holy Trinity Episcopal Church.
At the heart of Behold is a celebration of music and story that explores the themes of anticipation, wonder, and connection. With selections from Andrew Peterson’s Behold the Lamb of God, the Oh Hellos, and a mix of new music from the singer-songwriter tradition, Behold weaves together a thoughtful experience that is both introspective and uplifting. Whether you’re seeking solace, reflection, or simply beautiful music, Behold offers something for everyone as we embrace the spirit of the season.
Holiday Market
A community event created to support the efforts of the Food Pantry at Holy Trinity. The market will feature local sellers offering high-quality, handcrafted items, holiday treats, and sales of holiday trees and wreaths. There will be kids' make-and-take crafts, labyrinth walks, festive selfie stations, visits with Old Saint Nick, and live performances throughout the event.
Annual Parish Business Meeting
Sunday, December 7th, following the 10:30 a.m. liturgy.
Everyone is welcome to join us for our Annual Parish Business Meeting! This is a once-a-year gathering where we take a look back at the past year’s ministries, celebrate what God has done in our community, and look ahead to the coming year.
We’ll hear updates from church leaders, review the parish budget, and elect members to serve on the Vestry—the group of parishioners who help guide the mission and practical life of the church.
Even if you’re new to the Episcopal Church, this is a great way to learn more about how our parish works and to meet others who help lead and serve. Please plan to stay after the service for this important and welcoming event.
A Blue Christmas Service
offers a gentle, welcoming space for anyone who finds the holiday season difficult. Whether you are grieving, lonely, or simply feeling overwhelmed, this reflective service invites you to pause, breathe, and rest in God’s presence. Through quiet music, prayer, and scripture, we acknowledge both the sorrow and the hope of the season—trusting that God’s light shines even in our darkest nights. All are welcome to come as they are and find comfort and peace.
A Joyful Change for Our Children’s Christmas Pageant
This Christmas season, we want every child to have the chance to share the wonder and joy of Jesus’ birth. To make that possible, we’re moving our Children’s Christmas Pageant from Christmas Eve to Sunday, December 21st, during the 10:30 liturgy.
By celebrating a little earlier, we hope to include more families before holiday travels begin—and to give our children the opportunity to lift their voices and hearts together in telling the story of God’s love coming into the world.
Join us on Sunday, December 21st, as our children remind us of the true meaning of Christmas: the light that shines in the darkness and the joy that fills every heart.
Let’s gather as a church community to celebrate this beautiful tradition—now on December 21st!
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.
