Join us this Sunday to hear from Rev. Tobi Nguyen as we start a 3 part series on the Sermon on the Mount. This week we will look at the first part of the Sermon, to what are called the Beatitudes. We will be streaming online at trinitydurham.org or YouTube. The Scripture readings will be from Matthew 5:1-12 and Micah 6:1-8. We hope you will join us!

On the first Sunday in February, we will have a New Members Sunday. 

If you have been considering joining the church, now is the time! Please set up a meeting with Rev. Tobi Nguyen in the next couple of weeks to come and talk to her about the next steps, and what joining the church will look like.  

To schedule a meeting, please email the church office, or give us a call.

NYC-based jazz musicians Ben Rosenblum (piano/accordion), Marty Jaffe (bass), and Ben Zweig (percussion) will be the featured artists at a FREE CONCERT as part of a fundraising campaign for Open Table Ministry, an organization dedicated to ending homelessness in Durham. Mr. Rosenblum will be performing selections from his soon-to-be-released album, A Thousand Pebbles (February 10, 2023, with The Nebula Project) along with a selection of older favorites.

"The music is thoughtful. . . . Rosenblum and Lundy caress [the music] with the reverence it merits." -Bob Doerschuk, Downbeat Magazine [part of a four-star review of Mr. Rosenblum's debut album Instead]

I can safely say that you have never heard a jazz album that so successfully incorporates two diverse instruments as Ben’s soulfully expressed piano and accordion jazz." -Dick Metcalf, Contemporary Fusion

The next Allred/Shoaf Christ Care meeting will be held Monday, Feb. 6th @ 9:30 am in the Parlor.

We will be starting the first lesson from our new study, Jacob & the Prodigal. 

We hope to see you there!

Starting on Feb. 26th and 27th, we will have a new study walking through Luke offered on Sundays @ 9:15 am in the Parlor, or on Mondays @ 6:30 pm at the parsonage. This Lent, explore the Gospel of Luke and discover how Jesus comes to lift up the lowly.

The first meetings will be held on Sunday, Feb. 26th @ 9:15 am in the Parlor, or Monday, Feb, 27th 

If you would like to join this study on Monday nights at the parsonage, please email the church office to RSVP since space will be limited.

I bring you New Year greetings and blessings! I'm excited to let you know that Abingdon Press has published some of the curriculum I've written for Adult Bible Studies into a devotional book for Lent called Toward the Cross.  It's available on Amazon, Cokesbury, and wherever you buy or order your books.  My family joins me in wishing you a meaningful Lent and a glorious Easter.    

In Christ,
