All Are Welcome
At 9:30 AM, worship with us inside the Sanctuary. There will be full congregational singing and no limit for attendance. We have full communion, minus the common cup, but pre-filled communion cups are still available for people who still wish to social distance. Masks are optional.
This service will be live-streamed on our webpage at 9:30 AM every Sunday.
We are looking for any and all volunteers to help out during Worship. Please use this Sign-Up Genius link to sign up as a Worship Assistant for this Sunday, or any Sunday in the future: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080c4fa8ab23a4fa7-worship16
Join us at Holy Trinity for a spirited discussion on this week's lectionary, led by our Pastor. All are welcome to join us in-person, in the Gathering Area for a lively discussion.
A simple 45-minute service in celebration of all things we’re thankful for. All are welcome.
Please stay after church on Sunday, Dec. 1, for an Advent wreath-making workshop led by Pat Zeigler and other talented wreath-makers. We will provide the wreath holder and candles, but this year we are asking participants to bring their own greens to share! We are hoping that this will make for a much more eclectic and interesting array of wreaths. We will have some extra greens on hand, but not enough for everyone. We have ordered 25 advent wreath kits. Sign up below to reserve your spot! (Donations will be accepted but there is no fee for participating.)
Join Pastor Luther in reading and discussing Claire Keegan's acclaimed novella, Small Things Like These. An international bestseller, the book is a deeply affecting story of hope, quiet heroism, and empathy from one of our most critically lauded short story writers. It is a short read (around 100 pages), yet it is one of those rare works of fiction where every sentence and every word is perfectly chosen. The book has also just been made into a highly regarded film, released just a week ago, starring Cillian Murphy as the protagonist-father, Bill Furlong. Pastor Luther hopes to bring two dozen copies of the book to church this Sunday for your purchase.
Beginning on Wednesday, December 4, and on Dec. 11 & 18, Bible Study will meet at 4:30 PM instead of its usual time. All are welcome to stay after Bible Study for a Soup Supper at 5:30 PM, and Holden Evening Prayer at 6:30 PM. After Christmas, Bible Study will plan on meeting at its regular time.
The New Hampshire Gay Men's Chorus is returning to Holy Trinity, with a concert scheduled for Saturday, December 14 at 7:00 PM. Tickets are available to be purchased at https://www.nhgmc.com/tickets/ and click the BLUE button to purchase.

If you are visiting for the first time or you are not a regular church-goer, this short guide is for you.
Worship at Holy Trinity follows a traditional pattern that dates from the early church. It involves the whole person in the "worship of the people" (the "liturgy"). There is singing and responsive readings, prayers and greetings, candles and colorful pastoral garb, sitting and standing, words about the Word and an open invitation to the Lord's Supper, offerings and closing exhortations to go forth and serve the world. Don't worry if this may be new to you. We all use a printed Worship Booklet to guide us through the service, and other worshipers will happily help the newcomer. A large-print version of the Worship Booklet is also available. Just ask the usher.
People of every walk of life are part of our community and our attire reflects that. Come as you are. You will see people in jeans, dresses, suits, shorts, high heels and flip-flops.
Following the worship service we assemble in the Gathering area for coffee, light treats, and fellowship. Please join us!
If you bring a child to worship at Holy Trinity, feel free to relax! We believe that God gave children the wiggles when God made them, and it’s ok for them to wiggle during worship.
We have a children’s sermon each week during worship to engage children in the stories of the Bible in a way that they can understand.
