Visitors and newcomers are always warmly welcomed at Trinity services. There is an easy sloping pathway to the main entrance of the church which affords access. The church is fitted with an induction loop for hearing aid users. There are boxes of toys for toddlers in the Welcome Area to which the service is clearly relayed enabling parents to stay with their small children if they wish.
9.15am Early Morning Communion
This half-hour service is held on the second Sunday morning of each month.
10.30 am Family Worship, Junior Church and Holy Communion
Children and young people worship with the adult congregation for 20
minutes or so and then move to the hall to continue their activities in
Junior Church. Visiting children are welcome to go over to Junior Church. For
All-Age services (4 times a year) and on special
occasions (eg Harvest,
Easter, Parade services) the children and young people remain for the
whole service.
The Sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated each month, and takes the
form of All-Age Communion twice a year.
We have both a Choir and a Worship Group that regularly give a musical lead in worship.
Each week members of the congregation bring gifts of tinned food, groceries and household or personal items which are then dedicated with the offertory and subsequently distributed to various local centres for homeless people.
Following the service everyone is welcome to stay on for a friendly chat. Coffee and tea are served in the church. There is a Bookstall in the Welcome area, and once a month there is a Traidcraft Stall in the Welcome Area.
6.30pm Evening Worship, Holy Communion and Healing Services
Once a month, usually on the third Sunday evening, there is a celebration of Holy Communion combined with an Act of Healing, led by a minister. The quiet reflective nature of these services serves to meet people's personal and spiritual needs. On the remaining Sunday evenings the services are usually led by local preachers. United evening services with All Saints, Abingdon have become a frequent event. Joint services with all the churches in Abingdon occur four times a year, and Trinity members join neighbouring churches to celebrate special occasions in the Christian calendar eg Prayer for Christian Unity, Christian Aid Week, Advent.
