We are a Christian community of faith rooted in the Anglican tradition. Empowered by the Holy Spirit through Word and Sacrament, we seek to know the reconciling love of God and to share that love with others.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What do you believe?

As Episcopalians, we are followers of Jesus Christ, and both our worship and our mission are in Christ’s name. In Jesus, we find that the nature of God is love, and through baptism, we share in his victory over sin and death. We rely on the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as well as the Book of Common Prayer, which unites all Episcopal Churches in a shared life of prayer and sacraments.

Will I have to introduce myself in church?

No. Our Ushers will provide welcome materials to first-time guests during the service. We do not ask guests to stand and introduce themselves, but hope you share your contact information with us using our Visitor cards in the pew, so we 

can connect with you after your visit.

 

Where do I go when I get there?

Friendly greeters will welcome you at the back of the church or what we call the Nave,  (the Illinois street entrance of the church) and provide you with a Bulletin to participate in worship. 

Fellowship time at 8:00 a.m. Rite I, 10:30 a.m. Rite II. 

 

May I participate in communion?

All baptized Christians, including children, are invited to share in Holy Communion. Gluten-free wafers are available upon request. Those who are not baptized are invited to come forward and receive a blessing. If you are interested in being baptized, please speak to one of the clergy after the service.

 

Do you have Sunday school?

Yes. There are classes for all ages. We also have Children’s Chapel that begins at 10:35 (following the processional hymn) and ends after the peace.

Visit the Christian Education pages for more information about Sunday School activities for adults and youth.

 

Do you have a nursery?

Yes. Our nursery provides care for infants through 24 months; children 24 months or older are provided nursery care in a separate space. Sunday School opportunities for children begin at age 3. The nursery is available Sundays from 9:00 a.m. until the 12:00 pm, and during special events. 

Nursery employees are experienced childcare workers who create a safe, nurturing environment for all children.

 

Do you have any services during the week?

Yes. Holy Trinity has Holy Eucharist with Healing each Wednesday at 6:00 pm.
