Milestones

Every year on the Baptism of Our Lord Sunday, we will celebrate all those who were baptized the previous year. Your family will be recognized during worship and receive a keepsake gift to remember this special occasion, and as a reminder that you are a child of God.

Our First Communion Class is usually held in the spring. On this day, children and their parents will learn about and interact with this special meal we share together every Sunday! Then, children will receive their first communion during worship. Children who have already begun to receive communion but have not had instruction are also welcome to attend. Click here for more information and to register. Not sure if your child is ready? Email us! or check out this resource from the ELCA.

This Milestone gives parents the opportunity to bless their sons and daughters who will soon be stepping into a new stage of life and may be leaving home. Trinity wants to journey with you, and ask for God’s blessing as you walk this important path together with your family.

Wear your backpack to the Children’s Message at any of the worship services and receive a special blessing as the new school year begins!

One of the promises a parent makes at their child’s Baptism is to “place in their hands the Holy Scripture.” At Trinity, we partner with parents to provide Bibles to all children. Trinity gifts a Story Bible to every Kindergartner and a Student Bible to every 5th grader. If you miss the first day of class, please contact Amy Koch, Children’s Ministry Director, or Karen Albert-McFadden, Director of Youth and Student Ministries, to receive yours!

​Fulfilling the vows made for them at baptism, young people in Grades 7 & 8 gather each week, with teachers and small group discussion leaders, to learn about the sacraments, scripture, and how faith plays an important part of our everyday lives and in our journey of discipleship. Classes are held on Sunday mornings throughout the school year.
