Ash Wednesday 2023

The Season of Lent will begin with Ash Wednesday, February 22nd.

There will be two opportunities for Imposition of Ashes that day.

At NOON, Father Brad and Father Ed Murphy will be curbside in front of the church to impose ashes and lead you in a short liturgy. You stay in your car; allow 10 minutes or so. How convenient is that?!

If you prefer an indoor traditional experience, there will be a worship service at St. Paul’s, Waterloo at 7:00pm.

Three Kings Expected January 5

Rumor has it that the Three Kings will make a stop at Trinity Church on Sunday, January 5. They’ll be in luck because we’ll be having a baptism that morning. It will be fun to connect their journey to see the Christ child with the family’s beginning journey with their son. All visitors are welcome any Sunday at 9:30am.
