About
Mission
Trinity Fellowship exists to herald the glory of God over all creation. By God's grace, we desire to be a warm and welcoming church family. Our aim is to be marked by a healthy recognition of the wideness of God's Kingdom while at the same time be unwavering and unapologetic in our commitment to the absolute authority, inerrancy, and sufficiency of Scripture.
Recognizing the history and unity of the church means that we affirm the ancient ecumenical creeds of the early church (The Apostle's Creed [2nd Century A.D.], The Nicene Creed [A.D. 325], and the Chalcedonian Creed [A.D. 451]). Recognizing the need for further clarity means that we affirm the 1689 London Baptist Confession as our doctrinal standard. While subservient to Scripture, we believe it to be an accurate summary of biblical doctrine.
All those who desire a church family that is warm and welcoming, with teaching that is clear and biblical, are welcome to worship with us.
We practice family-integrated Covenant Renewal Worship
Family Integration
At Trinity, we believe children are a gift from God, and we encourage families to see the importance of training them in the worship service. It is an opportunity to learn the songs, vocabulary, and rhythm of worship from young on. We do have a nursery room for those times when these little ones become especially upset and their parents need to temporarily remove them from the worship service.
Worship as Covenant Renewal
Covenant Renewal Worship is a classical approach to liturgy that seeks to worship God according to the patterns that He has set out in Scripture. When He draws close to His people and renews covenant with them, He does so according to consistent patterns.
This pattern is summarized in five "C"s - Call to Worship; Confession; Consecration; Communion; Commissioning.
Call to Worship
God calls His people out of the world to gather in worship of Him.
Confession
God reminds us of our duty to Him and forgives us where we have sinned.
Consecration
God trains us for holiness and service through instruction by His Word.
Communion
God feeds us in order to strengthen us as we go back out into the world.
Commissioning
God gives us our mission as we depart.
