Youth and Worship

    At Trinity...

    Acolytes lead our worship by carrying the cross, candles, gospel book or banner, and by serving at the altar. This leadership opportunity allows them to learn the patterns of worship through direct participation. Trinity Church has opportunities for a large number of children and youth grades 4 through 12 to serve as acolytes. Most serve once a month. Contact the clergy if your child would like to participate in the ministry of the acolytes.

    Choristers  Children third grade and up are invited to join Choristers, our children’s choir program. Choristers learn music skills through curriculum developed by the Royal School of Church Music. They sing three times a month during the school year and participate in choir summer pilgrimages. Rehearsal is on Tuesday evenings from 4:45 to 7:15 with supper provided by Chorister parents. Contact Trinity’s your child is interested in singing with the group.

    Lectors  Teens often serve as lectors, reading one of the scripture lessons for Sunday worship. Contact the if you are interested in this ministry.
