Stepping into an unfamiliar church for the
first time can can make anybody a little bit
uncomfortable. Perhaps we can help you through this.
First off, at Trinity, you can
expect to feel welcomed and accepted from the moment you arrive. This
applies whether you're attending an activity here, participating in a
project we're doing for the community, or coming to one of
our worship services.
You may
have heard of visitors receiving a chilly reception at Episcopal churches, but
that's definitely NOT the case at Trinity! Our
founding families wanted Trinity to be a church for everyone, where everyone was
welcome, and we've never
forgotten it.
We're diverse and inclusive, and we welcome
everyone, regardless of who you are or where you are on your personal journey --
whether it's at the very beginning, or a bit farther on, or perhaps taking a step or two
back and reconsidering. We offer
companionship and community along the Way. In fact, our official motto is:
Offering Companionship Along The Way.
On this page you'll find links to other parts
of our website where there's information we hope will answer some of the questions
that might occur to you before the first time you visit us at
Trinity Lime Rock, especially if it's for a worship service.
But first, a question: Are you already a practicing
Episcopalian? Then, click
here for our "expert mode" page.
What will I see when I get to Trinity?
Where can I park my car? Which door do I go in?
(All good questions!! We've prepared a short video to answer
these questions for you).
When
are your office hours?
(in case I want to talk to somebody first).
In the interests of energy conservation and the comfort of
worshipers seated in the back of the church, during the coldest winter
months (usually January and February) the church doors under the steeple are kept closed.
Please enter via the red doors in Walker Hall during that time.
Someone will direct you to the sanctuary.
Here's a link
to a video that will help you orient yourself.
If you've got a question about Trinity
that's not answered here, please send an e-mail to the Trinity Webmaster.
