What is a Milestone?

A faith milestone is a marker along life’s journey that says, “this is something important and God is here, too.” Marking a milestone is a biblically-based spiritual practice that help all generations recognize God’s presence throughout our lives.

Kindergarten & 3rd Grade Bibles
TBD

One of the promises a parent makes at their child’s Baptism is to “place in their hands the Holy Scripture.” When children are in kindergarten and 3rd grade, we invite them and their parents to a presentation of age appropriate bibles during the education hour. Together with their parents children will participate in a special “Bible Discovery Workshop” where they can explore and dig into this wonderful library from God. Click here to register.

First Communion
Sunday, March 30 & April 6, 2025

Our First Communion Class will be held on Sunday, March 30, at 10 am. We will spend a fun morning learning about and interacting with this special meal we share together every Sunday! Then, on Sunday, April 6, children will receive their first communion at the worship service of their choice. This milestone is targeted for students in kindergarten and above. Younger children are welcome to attend with a parent. PLEASE NOTE: Children who have already begun to receive communion but have not had instruction are also welcome to attend.

Graduation Milestone
June 1, 2025

This Milestone gives parents the opportunity to bless their sons and daughters who will soon be stepping into a new stage of life and may be leaving home. Trinity wants to journey with you, and ask for God’s blessing as you walk this important path together with your family. Click here to share your child’s information so that we can recognize them during this milestone celebration.

Blessing of the Backpacks

Wear your backpack to the Children’s Message at any of the worship services and receive a special blessing as the new school year begins!

Affirmation of Baptism
October 27, 2024

​Fulfilling the vows made for them at baptism, young people in Grades 7 & 8 gather each week, with teachers and small group discussion leaders, to learn about the sacraments, scripture, and how faith plays an important part of our everyday lives and in our journey of discipleship. Classes are held Sunday mornings throughout the school year.
