Sermon by phone: 204 410 1384
A Congregational meeting has been called for Trinity United Church on Sunday November 5th, immediately following worship to review and approve Trinity’s “Structure and Governance and Policy and Procedures Manual”. Everyone is invited and encouraged to attend. This is the last notice of the meeting.
A new policy document has been developed for Trinity. The document is entitled “Structure and Governance & Policies and Procedures” and has been developed in response to the need for revision and updating of the old policy document that was last reviewed in 2014. The new document has been approved by the Trinity Board, but must also be approved by the congregation and, after that, the Regional Council. Refreshments will be served.
Sunday November 12th is Sunday School Sunday! Bring the kids and join Stephanie in the lower hall at 10:45am for fun, creative ways of learning about praying!
