Taize Services at Trinity - ALL are Welcome
Trinity hosts Taize Services monthly.
Services are at 7:30 p.m. at the church at 2200 N. Bell Avenue, Denton, TX 76209

Babysitting will be available. For details on the next service, please consult the church calendar.
What is Taize worship? Developed by the Taize Community in France, it is a time
of reflection, prayer, scripture, silence, and meditative singing. The songs are
simple, quickly learned, and for the purpose of allowing us to focus out thoughts
on our Triune God. Even as Taize itself has become a pilgrimage site for large
numbers of people around the world, its style of worship has found ready response
among many denominations.

New adult classes start September 12th.
Study of Neighbor -- Written by Pastor Ben Daniel
Class members will use the book Neighbor by Presbyterian minister Ben Daniel, who believes in pastoral welcome to all immigrants, legal and illegal, rather than nuanced policy solution to the crisis. Daniel goes beyond the spiritual arguments calling Christians to welcome the stranger, and offers an in-depth biblical and theological rationale for outreach and involvement. Led by Sue Thomson and friends. A Social Issues class.
The Book of Job
The book of Job cuts straight to the heart of what it means to be human. It is a profound exploration of the life of faith and asks some hard questions: What is the relationship between sin and suffering, obedience, and blessing? Why do terrible events take place? The always excellent Kerygma materials will be used. The Reverend Dr. Bob Hanson will be leading this study. An Advanced Bible study.
The Bible from Scratch--The New Testament for Beginners
Written by Presbyterian Christian educator Don Griggs, this book will help those new to studying the scripture to really get into the Bible. If you would like an introductory experience of learning what the Bible is, how it came to be, and what is behind and under and in the words on the page, this class is definitely for you! Led by Sara Hagan and Carl Seiler. A Basic Bible study.
Mid-Week Bible Study
Meeting from 5:30 to 6:30 on Wednesday evening. The group meets for group prayer, followed by Bible study. Throughout the month of August, the book of James is being read and studied. Beginning September 1, we will begin a 23 week study entitled, "Troublesome Bible Passages". Anyone who is interested is invited to attend. For more information and a copy of the new study, contact Margaret Dawson at 940-591-1008 or mdawson6and@aol.com
