GREETINGS
“Do not neglect the gift that
is in you…”
1st
Timothy 4.14
These
words were part of a letter of encouragement that the Apostle Paul
sent to his friend Timothy, and I believe this reminder is just as
powerful today as they were two thousand years ago.
Welcome
to Trinity
Church in Watertown, New York.
For almost 180 years our members have taken up this challenge
and made a difference for Jesus Christ in our community.
We gather each Sunday, the Lord’s Day, for the sharing of
God’s Word and Sacraments, for prayer and the blessing of God to do
our work in the coming week.
At Trinity we take seriously the gifts that God has given to
each of us and we own up to our responsibility to use them in our
daily lives.
Trinity
is a church for all. Our
members are often actively engaged in ministries both inside the
parish as well as out in the community.
Children are taught the wonders of our faith in Sunday
School. And all of our
members (young and old) are invited to take on the parts of our
worship to which they feel called.
I
invite you to NOT be satisfied with a “cyber experience” of Trinity.
Instead, on behalf of all of our members, I invite you to
join us when it matters most, on the Lord’s Day.
Do not neglect the gift that is in you.
Yours in
Christ,
Clarke French
Rector of Trinity Church
