This SundaySunday, February 12, 2023 Join us this Sunday for the 3rd part of the Sermon on the Mount series. In this week's passage, we will see not only the importance of relationships within the body but also the relationship of the church with the wider community. How can we lift community concerns or needs in our prayer times? What acts of service within the community are already in place that we can celebrate? What additional needs could be met, or invitations issued? Who is missing from the body of the church? Jesus calls us to go above and beyond in our attempts to see all the people. We will be streaming online at trinitydurham.org or YouTube. The Scripture readings will be from Psalm 119:1-8 and Matthew 5:21-48. We hope you will join us! For more infomation visit:

Introducing New MemberBeth Schartiger Beth was first attracted to Trinity by a picture on the website depicting a diverse congregation. But when she entered the front door, she found so much more. She started serving with Open Table Ministry, and it has opened her eyes to the many opportunities to serve people in the community. "I was repeatedly greeted with warm and sincere welcomes which continued into the sanctuary. The Holy Spirit that led me to Trinity was alive and well with every encounter and swelled with every note that sang to my soul. God indeed led me to this holy place for which I am forever thankful."
