Confession enables us to verbalize the things we often never name, but cause us pain and inner struggle. It also enables us to hear our forgiveness named, and to find a way forward. Sign up sheets for confession will be available in the narthex. If you wish you may also email Revd. Debs privately for a time. - 6pm – Ash Wednesday evening service in person and on Zoom.

Lenten Friends
What are Lenten Friends? It’s simple!
- Fill out a slip of paper with your name and contact info.
- On the Sunday after Ash Wednesday, pick a name out of the basket
- Pray for that person each day during Lent
- Some send cards and friendly greetings. You remain anonymous throughout Lent
- On Easter Sunday you reveal yourself to your Lenten Friend. Some like to bring a little gift.
That is it. It will be a great way to make a special connection to someone here at Trinity. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Pam Fitzmorris or the Trinity office.
