Trinity Lime Rock: What should I wear

What should I wear to Trinity?

Several people have mentioned that before their first visit to Trinity for a church service they wondered what to wear, so we're glad to provide a little helpful information.

At many churches, how other people are dressed seems to be considered very important, but we try not to pay much attention to it at Trinity.

Looking around the Trinity congregation on any particular Sunday, you are apt to see people dressed many ways, ranging from suits with white shirts and neckties at one extreme, to jeans or shorts and tee-shirts at the other. 

You might think that this sounds like a recipe for a social disaster, but at Trinity it doesn't work that way.  What is right for you is right for us.

  • Some people feel more comfortable going to church a little bit "dressed up" -- and, if this sounds like you, then we encourage you to dress up when you come to Trinity.  You won't be alone!
  • If you feel better wearing "corporate casual" or "country casual" you will probably find that you are dressed like many of the people in our congregation. 
  • And if you're more comfortable in jeans, you can be pretty much assured that there will be other people in the congregation who feel exactly the same way.

Seasonal attire?  Practical clothes?  Well, during the summer, you may see our young people trooping in straight from the soccer field, cleats and all.  During the summer, we welcome folks who are camping in tents in the Infield across the street at Lime Rock Park -- and very few people bring suits when they go tent camping.

We also have visitors who are hikers on the Appalachian Trail (which runs within half a mile of our building) and bicyclists who are touring the Housatonic River valley.

During mud season (everyone in the Northwest Corner knows when it's mud season) mud boots are certainly de rigeur for everyone.

And during the winter, needless to say we expect everyone to dress warmly.

 

At Trinity we're far more interested in what's in your heart than what's on your back.
