ChildREN’s ministry
At every baptism, the congregation pledges to support the child along his or her faith journey. Many fulfill this promise as Sunday School teachers and helpers.
Sunday School meets at 9:45 a.m. in the Youth Center.
TK – 5th grade:
The curriculum is organized in biblically themed units. Each unit includes a variety of activities. They include music, drama, cooking, crafts, and games. Many of our activities are held outside on our beautiful campus. The children are organized into age groups.
Children ages five & up attend Worship. Younger children are always welcome in Worship! Childcare for children two-four years is available during Sunday morning activities and Worship.
Children’s Choir (Sundays 11:15-12:00)
The children’s choir is directed by Maddy Hardy. Our children in grades TK-5th sing fun songs and play games as they learn specific pieces of music that can be sung in worship services approximately 3-4 times per year.
Youth
At Trinity, we help our youth build stronger relationships with God, our church family, and our community. We believe in growing together, welcoming all.
- Sunday Morning activities (Grades 6-12, Youth Center) – Youth are invited to be youth leaders who assist the adult teachers with the children.
- Sunday Night Youth Fellowship: During the academic school year, our 6th-12th graders eat dinner and meet in the Youth Center from 5:30–7 p.m.
- We encourage our youth to grow as leaders in Worship. They read scripture on Sunday mornings, and participate as acolytes, ushers, and crucifers. Other growth and leadership opportunities include Youth Sunday and serving as elders on our Session.
- Trinity’s Youth serve and learn through our partnership with Roof Above, Mission Trips, and Souper Bowl of Caring. Our annual Silent Auction and BBQ help fund our mission travels.
For more information on programs for children and youth, contact Rev. Jodi Martin, Director of Christian Formation and Youth.
CARING FOR YOUR MENTAL HEALTH
There is no shame in needing to strengthen your mental health. Trinity is committed to de-stigmatizing mental health and acknowledging how it affects our day-to-day life. If you are in need of assistance, check out these resources or reach out to a pastor to talk more about what you need.
Montreat Retreat
For more than 40 years, Trinity members and guests have claimed the third weekend in October at Montreat’s Assembly Inn. Whether it’s climbing to the top of Lookout Mountain, shopping, visiting a microbrewery, singing by the fire, taking a stroll around Lake Susan, watching football together, or napping on Saturday afternoon, there is something for all ages.
