Our desire is to worship our Triune God as he has prescribed in his word: with reverence and awe (Heb 12:28), in Spirit and Truth (John 4:23). Scripture teaches that worship is a dialogue that we have with our covenant God. He speaks to us through his Word and Sacraments and we respond in prayer and praise. The order of our service (liturgy) is modeled after the liturgies used in the Protestant churches of the Reformation in the 16th and 17th centuries, which liturgies were modeled after those of the Fathers of the Early Church.

What You Can Expect
We at Trinity Presbyterian Church eagerly invite all to come and experience together the richness of God’s grace for us in Christ. To this end, every Sunday, we give the principle place to the expository preaching of God’s Word. Letting the Word of Christ dwell in us richly (Col. 3:16), we also sing Psalms and Scriptural hymns that bring praise to our Triune God. As the one people of God, we are also spiritually fed the Bread of Life (John 6:35) as we celebrate the Lord’s Supper every Sunday. Immediately following the Lord’s benediction, the children are briefly instructed by the pastor as he reinforces the points of the sermon to them on a level that they can understand. After a time of further fellowship with snacks and refreshments, we have our time of Sunday School for all ages.
