Eucharist: letting the Lord touch our owies

Eucharist: letting the Lord touch our owies

Monday Jun 20, 2022

Sometimes we think we need to present a sanitized version of ourselves or of our lives to God, and then we wonder why we’re not healed. Why do we do that? Jesus ate with sinners, willingly. He touched the sick, physically. He sought out the lost, intentionally. He’s comfortable with our weakness, our brokenness, our foolishness. And in the Eucharist, he waits for us, like a parent waiting for their hurt child to move their hands so they can treat their owie.

Come, Holy Spirit!

Monday Jun 06, 2022

When our focus is on God, then it's possible for us to be united together with all kinds of differences in our midst. That is what Pentecost is about: the coming down of the Spirit, renewing us and helping us to stay focused on God so we can be united.

The Joy of God

Monday May 30, 2022

Invite Jesus in to your life and ask Him what He wants you to do. As you begin to sense that He is telling you something, you have to respond. Little by little, you will begin to see Him moving within you – and, in that movement, you’ll experience the joy that comes with having Jesus in your life.

Two Very Different Kinds of Peace

Monday May 23, 2022

Jesus promises us that, yes, we are going to have suffering and crosses that we will have to deal with - and that he will work with us in those moments and bring good out of it. Oftentimes, we don't see it; but God will never let go of any of us, and he is working especially in the challenging moments of our lives.

Raiding the Devil’s House

Raiding the Devil’s House

Monday May 16, 2022

Church isn't a refuge; it's a raid on the kingdom of the enemy, designed to undermine his power. Every time we meet adversity, misfortune, misunderstanding, and hostility with patience, trust, forgiveness, and the strength that comes from God, Jesus' victory on the Cross spreads a little further.

A Love We Can Only Begin to Understand

Monday May 09, 2022

God is love, and He loves us far more than we will ever comprehend, far more even than we can love each other or our own children (and that's a lot).

Our Mission - Know, Grow, Go

Holy Trinity summarizes its purpose as  know, grow, go. These three words define and motivate everything we do here.

KNOW:  We are committed to providing the necessary tools, support, and encouragement for each person to come to know God in a personal way.  There is a huge difference between knowing  about God, and coming to  know God in a personal way.  The ministry of Jesus was directed to show us how to do this and to make this possible.

“I bow my knees before the Father, and ask that he may grant you to be strengthened thru the Holy Spirit, that Christ may dwell in your hearts, and that being rooted in love you may have the power to comprehend the extravagant love of God, and to personally experience the love of Christ which surpasses all knowledge.”

Eph. 3:14-18


GROW:  Holy Trinity then provides many services helpful in allowing this relationship with God to grow towards greater maturity.  Our liturgies, ministries, programs, school, and community are all dedicated to ongoing growth in our faith and in living that faith deeply and fruitfully.

“Put on the whole armor of God, that you might be able to resist the attack of the devil. Put on truth, righteousness, peacefulness, and faith. Pray with fervor. Keep alert. Speak boldly. Intercede persistently for all."

Eph. 6:13-20


GO:  All of this leads us to go forth and make a difference in our community:  in our families, workplaces, schools, neighborhoods, and everywhere we are.  We seek to give God permission to use us and our interests, gifts, and skills for the building of his Kingdom.

"As each has received a gift, employ it for one another as good stewards of God’s abundant and varied grace — in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ.”

1 Peter 4:10-11
