Dear Trinity Family and Friends,
This Sunday we celebrate the Holy Trinity and offer thanks for all parts of God working in and through ourselves and our church. It’s also the time we slip into the wonderful season of “Ordinary Time” - known also as the “Green Season.” In holy synchronicity, our church liturgical green matches the glorious green in God’s Creation we see at every turn. Ordinary time can be understood as the season in which we are called to live out our Christian faith in our everyday lives - in ordinary ways. It’s a time to be both lazy and adventurous, to play and to rest, to tend and to enjoy sabbath. I wish you every blessing for whatever summer holds. Know that we’ll be right here, practicing our ordinary rhythm of being God’s people together at our not-so-ordinary beloved Trinity! Yours, as ever, in faith and love, Elizabeth+ Trinity Sunday Sonnet by Charles Williams In the Beginning, not in time or space, But in the quick before both space and time, In Life, in Love, in co-inherent Grace, In three in one and one in three, in rhyme, In music, in the whole creation story, In His own image, His imagination, The Triune Poet makes us for His glory, And makes us each the other’s inspiration. He calls us out of darkness, chaos, chance, To improvise a music of our own, To sing the chord that calls us to the dance, Three notes resounding from a single tone, To sing the End in whom we all begin; Our God beyond, beside us and within.
