Welcome to Trinity
What time is Sunday worship?
Worship is at 10:00am every Sunday morning. Our services usually just under an hour and are designed to help you immerse yourself in God’s presence. Communion is served on the first Sunday of each month, and everyone is welcome at our table!
What do I wear?
The main thing to remember is to be comfortable. As a church in a beach town, you will find people dressed in both casual and formal clothes. You will find people wearing anything from shorts and t-shirts to jeans and pants to dresses and suits.
What are your services like?
While most of our services follow a traditional format, our worship includes an integrated blend of sacred choral music, classical hymns, and contemporary songs. Our Pastor’s messages breathe fresh relevance into the ancient scriptures with an application for our lives today. You will notice that at Trinity we have a warm relaxed fellowship, while offering our heart and soul to God.
What should I expect when I arrive?
When you walk in, you’ll receive a warm welcome from our greeter’s team at the door. You may hear the chancel choir warming up for the service. You might see a bustle of people, some relaxed, sipping on coffee and chatting, others busily preparing for the service. Some people “dress up” for church but many arrive dressed comfortably and casually.
In the sanctuary, you can expect a gathering of people of all ages. You’ll receive a bulletin that guides you through the service – or you can follow along on the screens. Durning the service, children are invited up for a children’s message and then can either draw or play in the children’s area (in the front right of the sanctuary), or stay with their families.
​
Children's Church
Children are invited to participate in Children’s Church each Sunday following the Faith Formation moment in worship. They enjoy a welcoming space with age-appropriate lessons, activities, and a snack, all led by two caring, fully screened volunteers. Nursery care is also available.
​
*If your child will attend Children’s Church or the Nursery, please sign them in at the Narthex when you arrive so we can contact you if needed during the service.
How do I become a member?
What a blessing it is to welcome newcomers to Trinity! You start by taking our New Member Orientation. For more information on membership, please fill out a connect with us form or contact the church office at 386 445-4757.
May my child be baptized if I am not a member?
Because the congregation takes vows to help nurture children in the Christian faith, we require that parents be members of the church. However, we regularly receive parents as members and baptize their children in the same service. It’s a special experience!
​
Does Trinity belong to a larger group?
Yes. We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), a 2.1 million member denomination.
May I be active and involved if I’m not a Presbyterian?
Absolutely! You don’t have to be a Presbyterian or a member of the church to participate in Trinity’s ministries and programs.
