A Church with a
Heart for the City!


 
 
The Church with a Heart for the City!
Welcome to the Trinity United Methodist Church website! We are 185 years young and are so happy you are visiting our website today. It is our fervent prayer that you will feel the warmth of our church family spirit, and that you will experience God’s presence in a mighty way as you navigate through the pages of our website.

At Trinity, there are opportunities for all ages and life stages to become involved through fellowship, outreach, and continuing Christian study. Sunday mornings offer exciting traditional and contemporary worship services, wonderful music, and Christian education classes for every age group. We are an active congregation located in the heart of downtown Tallahassee. Indeed, Trinity is The Church with “a Heart for the City.”

If you are new to Tallahassee, we hope you will consider making Trinity your church home by becoming a member of our friendly and supportive family. If you are just browsing, we pray that your time spent on our website will be an informative, uplifting, and meaningful time for you.

 

Rev. E. Wayne Curry, Pastor

 

One of the privileges of being one of the pastors of this great church is seeing the Body of Christ at work every day. These past few weeks we’ve had several of our members at Tallahassee Memorial Rehabilitation Center recuperating from surgery. Almost every time I have gone to visit one of those folks there has also been a caring member of our church in the room, talking and laughing, sharing stories, and just lifting the spirit of that person in the bed by their loving presence. I was told that one of our Sunday School classes held their class one Sunday morning at the Rehab Center so their fellow church members could be there! Words cannot express how much that meant to those who were recuperating.   Continued ...

Trinity’s new Pictorial Directory

Make plans now to have your portrait taken for the Trinity directory. This is your chance to get a family portrait, help your church, and get a free 8x10 photograph just for showing up!

Sign-ups for appointments will continue each Sunday through September 12. Or, you can sign up by clicking on the directory image every day except Sunday and following the instructions on the LifeTouch website.

The next session will take place September 14-18 (from 1:30-8 p.m. Tuesday-Friday, and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday).

This is also a great opportunity to take advantage of a little no pressure evangelism. Invite your neighbors to have their picture taken too - it’s free and they get a complimentary 8x10 (don’t worry, they won’t be in the directory unless they’re members). Who knows, they might like what they see of Trinity and want to come back for church. Or invite your family and friends. Trinity gets benefits for each photograph, whether the photos are of Trinity members or not. And there’s no pressure from LifeTouch to buy more pictures - buy only the sizes you want. The goal is to have as many of Trinity’s members in the directory as possible. It’s a Trinity tradition and it’s a great opportunity to help others recognize who you are. Hope to see you there!
