Worship 11/16/25
Harvest NurturE
The Harvest Team will host a Brave Brunch after the service next Sunday, Nov.16, 2025. This is an opportunity to practice cultural humility, a chance to step outside your gastronomical comfort zone. The team will provide Muesli, and we ask you to bring a dish to share reflecting your cultural heritage. Please include a description of the dish and the culture it represents. The Harvest Team looks forward to your participation in this adventure.
For our final Sunday of the Harvest season, we will welcome Nadia Dames, who is a brave leader in the Harrisonburg and Rockingham community. Join us in person following worship.
Clothing Drive for Bluestone Elementary
We’re collecting clothing items to support students at Bluestone Elementary! Please consider donating youth medium and large shirts, boys’ pants (all sizes), boys’ underwear (all sizes), and socks. Donations can be dropped off at the church through November 14. Let’s come together to help our local kids stay warm and comfortable this season—thank you for your generosity!
Advent Wreath Making
Nancy Hopkins-Garriss will guide participants through the process of making their own Advent wreath after worship on Sunday, November 30. If you'd like to make a wreath, please sign up below, so we can have enough supplies on hand. If you plan to re-use any supplies, let Christabell know. All participants should bring a large round plate or some other flat surface on which the wreath will be made and transported. Greens and other adornments are needed, too. We will also work to decorate the church. Join us!
Advent pickup choir
Does the Advent season make you want to sing? We will have an Advent pickup choir who will sing an anthem on Sunday, December 21st. The first practice will be this Sunday following worship - brief enough to make it to the congregational presentation at 11:30. We hope to hear you there!
NAACP Gala
As a Matthew 25 Congregation, we are charged to confront racism and work to abolish it. Learning about and working with the local NAACP chapter is a beginning step in this direction. The NAACP Gala on Dec 13th is an opportunity to do this.
There are 6 tickets available free of charge… on a first come, first serve basis. They will be in the Church Office after November 8th. If you want to claim one (or more), contact Mary Lou McMillin. (On a personal note, I joined the NAACP last spring. I will be out of town for the Gala but would love to fill this table with Trinity folk. - Mary Lou)
Yoga Class
Centering Space is pleased to announce registration is open for the next 2025 yoga class led by Robin Atwood. The Second Fall Yoga Session begins October 28 and runs through December 16 from 5:00 - 6;00 p.m., with no class on November 4 (Election Day) and November 11 (Veterans Day).
We suggest a donation of $30.00 for this 6-week class; however, Centering Space will continue to provide this class at no cost to participants. Register Here. You can pay online here, through the Trinity's online giving portal, or with a check/cash when you come.
New Drivers are Always Welcome at Valley Area Network Immigrant Transportation Assistance
