Interim Pastor Mike Sharrett invites you to join him for a summer Bible study. Sundays,  through Aug 28, 8:30–9:20am, room 250. Sorry, no childcare. "From Eternity to Eternity: How God Claims You and Keeps You." From 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17, we'll see that God is with you in the storm; God chose you; God called you; God justified you; God sanctifies you; God glorifies you. All are welcome; attend as few or as many sessions as you desire!

On Aug 28 right after the worship service, we will have a Ministry Fair to learn more about the different ministries and volunteer opportunities at Trinity this fall.

Move-In help days: Aug 13, 15, and 17 ISI and church volunteers will transport arriving international students by large buses from Dulles Airport to Charlottesville.

This is often a first contact these students have with Americans and/or Christians. You may also volunteer to help greet arriving internationals at Dulles.
