The purpose of our SS program is to bring Christ, the Savior, and His Word to children, and teach them to live and walk with Jesus daily.  We believe that all people--children, youth and adults--need Christ as they need nothing else in the world.  Trinity's SS program is designed to assist parents in the Christian education of their child(ren).  It can serve as a resource, a place for your child(ren) to learn together with other children their age, and a support for your family as you grow together in your faith walk.

Our SS program serves preschool (age 3) children to 8th Grade (age 13) and meets during Bible Study Hour (9:45 am each Sunday morning) in Trinity Hall.  Children can be enrolled and introduced to classes by bringing them to the SS office, room #1, between 9:30 and 9:45 am on Sunday morning.  

The purpose of Adult Bible study at Trinity is to teach God's people what it means to be a Baptized child of God and to equip them to function effectively as they walk daily with Christ.  We invite and encourage you to join us as we study God's Word together.  Besides various Sunday morning Bible classes, from June to Sept we offer weekday classes as follows:

  • Men's Study Group at 6:30 am--1st & 2nd Wednesday at 4 Bears Cafe

  • Women's Study Group at 9:30 am--Wednesday at Trinity Hall (Sept to May)

  • Morning Star Class at 10:30 am Thursday at Trinity Hall (Sept to May)

For current schedule, check the church calendar or call the church office. 

Library Committee:  Alethia Rahe, Chairman,  Joyce Corwin, Sonja Welch, and Mary Wolfe.   The committee has sponsored the annual Archie's Christian Book Fair for the past several three years.

Wed Morning Ladies Group with leader Betty Groves and alternate leader Phyllis Von Fange--From time to time more than 20 ladies participate (Sept to May).
