SUNDAY SCHOOL NEW FORMAT - Sunday School will begin on September 12th, on Yiayia-Pappou Sunday and at the request of Fr. Anastasios, it has been moved to after communion to teach our children that worship is the highest priority and teach them how we worship. The best thing we can do is come one time, at 9:30am or earlier, for "Blessed is the Kingdom" so that they may hear and learn the hymns, to see the small entrance, to hear the epistle, the gospel, and the children's sermon, which was all missed before. Your children will sit with you during Church, more instructions on how a communion dismissal will work at Church.
While we were planning to encourage masking in Sunday School, in following our Metropolis Guidelines, which asks us to follow local school guidelines for schools, our Children must wear a mask for Sunday School. That same rule does not currently hold true for Church, but for Sunday School it does. God-willing this will only be a temporary measure and we pray that God protect all of our children and families.
PRAYER CHAIN - Members of Holy Trinity are being brought together in efforts to pray for those in need of prayers. Please contact Joanie Ondrako, Fr. Anastasios, or the Office to join the prayer team, a group of people who will pray for the names given each day.
Prayer requests can be submitted anonymously and will be on the prayer list as long as your request is wanted, even up to a year. To request a prayer, click here.
MEMBERS OF PHILOPTOCHOS: September is here and thus starts our new regular calendar year and monthly scheduled meetings!

Grab your coffee and donut and join us for this IMPORTANT ELECTION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS MEETING! We have potential candidates so don't shy away from this meeting for fear of being asked to hold a position you're uncomfortable with.
