Through excellence in worship in its various forms b. Through mutual ministries of care and support c. Through the provision of spiritual direction and guidance d. Through the promotion of learning and the joy of inquiry e. Through ecumenical and interfaith dialog and projects II. As an important historic and cultural institution, by making Trinity Church and its facilities host to the wider community through artistic Presentations and other related activities III. As a catalyst to improve the lives of others, providing caring service in the parish and the community a. By establishing effective programs and methods of outreach b. By training others to help c. By educating and inspiring young people d. By acting in cooperation with other churches and institutions IV. By fostering good stewardship of time, talent, and treasure on the part of all members of the parish V. By providing resources in personnel, equipment, and supplies for the implementation of parish goals as the Parish of the Holy Trinity strives to be faithful to Christ's command to love God and neighbor, there is the understanding that our Parish serves several constituencies: first, the congregation; second, the county which we serve; and third, the wider community, including our Diocese, beyond the borders of our parochial jurisdiction. |
