Next Steps 

Engage God, Engage GOD'S PEOPLE AND ENGAGE THE WORLD 

WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO NEXT?

Everyone has a next step. In fact, in order to accomplish the mission that Jesus gave us, we need to be constantly looking for new opportunities to grow in our faith. At Trinity, we do that in three ways, Engage God, Engage God's People and Engage the World. You might Engage God through Bible studies or Sunday morning classes. You might Engage God's People by participating the Altar Guild or Women's League or by supporting our Paper Hugs group. You could get involve with one of our mission partners or participate in a blood drive or fundraiser to Engage the World. 

If you are new, and have questions about Trinity, visit our First Visit page for all the details. 

Baptism

Families desiring to have an infant or young child baptized at Trinity are first encouraged to worship with us. We understand that every church and every person are unique and we want to you to feel at home at Trinity. Prior to baptizing an infant or young child, parents must schedule a time to sit down with with Jeremy Ashley to discuss baptism: our need for baptism; the role of parents and godparents/sponsors; how to schedule a baptism; how parents and Trinity can work together to nurture the faith; as well as a walk through of the baptism celebration used at Trinity. To schedule a meeting or to find our more about baptism, please contact Jeremy at jashley@trinityct.org.

Life with Jesus

Whether you are a lifelong believer or interested in finding out more about Christianity, this 11-week class is for you. Together, we'll explore Christ's gracious invitation of a personal relationship with God and the Spirit-filled life of following Christ as his disciple as well as the various shapes that takes here at Trinity. Life with Jesus is for anyone who would like to attend, but is especially for those considering membership at Trinity. Attending Life with Jesus does not obligate you to become a member. The Life with Jesus experience lays a foundation for living. For the unconvinced or new believer, it's a way to be introduced to life with Jesus.Whether the teaching is new or brings renewal, it is God's grace that motivates us to grow in the journey of faith as fully devoted followers of Jesus and is foundational for our life together at Trinity. If you would like to be added to to the list of those interested in this opportunity, please contact the Church office at 586-463-2921 x143, or acoppenger@trinityct.org.

Trinity offers several opportunities for children to get involved with their own ministry. On Sunday mornings, we offer preschool Sunday School for 4 year-olds as well as 252, which is our Sunday School experience for those in kindergarten through fifth grade.

YouTube Channel and also the 252 Ministry Facebook Group.

Youth Confirmation

Confirmation is a process whereby students confirm their baptismal faith.  When parents bring their child to the waters of baptism, they make a promise.  Do you know what it is? A promise to shepherd the child’s heart in matters of faith - to teach them of Jesus and to lead them into HIS arms.  We want to help you live up to your promise. Trinity offers confirmation modules throughout the year to help students hear the Word, learn about it's meaning and take steps toward their own confirmation. To register for confirmation modules, visit the Confirmation page.
