FAMILY FAITH Activities to do at home

Every age has a place at Trinity! 

Our Nursery, for infants through age four, has recently expanded and the toys, books, and playset are clean and waiting for your Little One. Also waiting is our experienced childcare staff who serve on Sunday morning as well as during many special events. Parents are welcome to stay with their children and listen to the service on the speaker located in the nursery. Also available for parents who want to stay in the nave during Services, a double-wide pew with a rocking chair and books. Please ask an usher if you'd like to be seated there.

Our Pre-K through 6th graders get to know Jesus and his teachings in age-appropriate Scripture and faith lessons at Children’s Chapel during worship and through an interactive Sunday School format which meets twice per month. Families are also invited to other activities throughout the month that include nature walks, “Eat, Pray, Play” gatherings at a family’s home, beach excursions, and online seasonal fun! 

Middle-schoolers (5th-8th graders) are invited to take part in Children’s Chapel and our interactive Sunday School.  This age group is also invited to join the Oasis Multi-Church Middle School Youth Group, coordinated by Spring Glen Church (Hamden) and co-hosted by several churches – including Trinity – throughout the year.  

Teenagers and preteens are invited to grow in their leadership skills and faith while serving God through social justice initiatives, as mentors to our younger learners, and in service to our church community. Rev. Luk leads our Youth Group in fun activities once a month. In addition, our teens serve as acolytes during worship and as leaders in our Summer Bible Camp.  

Young adults through senior members of our community are invited to enhance their ongoing faith journeys with this ministry. Share your time, talent, and love for God with our younger members as an advisor, retreat leader, or witness. Connect with Angela to share your ideas and explore opportunities.
