Trinity's Web-Site Improvements

For the past two months, our communications team has been working to improve the church website. We went live with the site this past week! We hope you like our improvements.

Spring Foyers

March is the month to sign up for Spring Foyers and will continue through the end of the month. Please sign up on the sheet in the Narthex. The French word "foyer" means "hearth or fireside" and suggests small groups in a relaxed and casual atmosphere. Foyers provide an opportunity for fellowship and focus on hospitality rather than entertainment. Folks get together and enjoy each other's company. Groups of 6--8 (combined at random, rather than by age, zip code, etc.) meet three or four times over a six-month period for a simple meal and relaxed conversation. Couples or individuals take turns hosting. Each Foyers group determines its own meeting date. Please sign up in the Narthex and join us. If you have any questions, please contact Jack and San West at 281.298.8811.

New Junior Choir at Trinity

I am excited to announce the formation of Trinity Junior Choir for all children in grades 1-6. Junior Choir will meet each Wednesday from 4:00-5:00PM, with snacks available starting at 3:45PM. Each week we will sing hymns, prepare special music, play games and learn to play the hand chimes. For more information, contact Micki Balog.

Records Update for Trinity Members

In order to better communicate with our parishioners, we need to update your information. Beginning this Sunday, March 3rd a printout will be posted in Butler Fellowship Hall, Please peruse your information and make any updates or corrections to your listing. If all information is correct, please initial by your name. These lists will be available through Palm Sunday. Corrections will be made in our software and a new directory will be printed the first of April.

Trinity Episcopal Day School Dinner, Dance and Auction

Mark your calendars to take a trip with TEDS! Our annual Dinner, Dance and Auction is April 13th. Don’t miss your chance to take a magic carpet ride with us! Look out for your invitation to 'A Night in Marrakesh', TEDS annual Dinner, Dance & Auction. It will be a night you don't want to miss!

Garden and Grounds

Paul and Tanya McKelvey will be moving to their new home in March. On behalf of Trinity, I want to thank Paul for his devotion and hard work to our campus these past two years. His efforts and talents have made our gardens and grounds a truly beautiful place. His stewardship has been a blessing to us all. We are looking for folks to become a part of this ministry and for an individual to head it. We are also looking for someone to be in charge of our sprinkler system. This involves changing broken sprinkler heads and turning the system on or off as rain dictates. Any major repairs are done by the professional sprinkler company we use, so this does not require a great deal of knowledge about irrigation systems. If you would like to become a part of this important ministry at Trinity, please contact Joanne Welker at 281.419.6237 or email me at

Wall of Compassion

It is time once again to build our Wall of Compassion, which is our food drive campaign for Interfaith. Pick up your box and list of items in Butler hall and return it FULL to the stage in Butler Hall by March 24th. Thanks for your continued commitment to this important community service.

ReCAPS Bowling Night

The newly revived Christians As Parents (Re-Cap) ministry is open to all parents who have young children as well as other young adults who are headed in that direction. Our next outing will be a group date night on March 16th - We will be going bowling, and leaving all the kids behind at Trinity Kids Corner! Childcare will be available from 5-8pm upon request-please pack a sack dinner for your child. Bowling will begin at 5:30PM. We are suggesting a “free love offering” of $20 for this event which includes bowling, popcorn, and soda. Don’t let the cost keep you from attending. Trinity Family “has you covered.” Check out our Facebook page (Re-Caps) for more information or e-mail

Easter Eggs for the Hunt

Join us on March 31st, Easter Sunday for our annual Easter Egg Hunt! The hunt will begin at 10:15AM. Candy filled eggs are needed. Please bring a dozen wrapped candy filled eggs in a bag marked with your child’s age. There will be a basket in the Narthex and the office reception area for the collection. Don’t forget your Easter baskets on Easter Sunday!

Flowering of the Cross on Easter Sunday

All Children are invited to bring a flower on Easter Sunday to put on the cross outside the Sanctuary. This is a beautiful tradition we have and the cross looks so pretty with all the different flowers!
