Scripture tells us every child should be respected, yet school discipline in our city often treats students as potential threats. Trinity Church is proud to support the #SNSBill, which will ensure our schools embrace nonpunitive approaches, prioritizing a student’s emotional well-being and success.

Halfway into the Lent season, Rev. Kristin reminds us, "In the stillness of Lent, we pay attention to what’s holy — what’s healing. Holiness brings us back to unity with God and with one another.”

A collage of nine close-up photographs showcases various hellebore flowers in different colors and forms. The flowers range from deep purples and rich reds to soft whites and pale greens, with some displaying single-layered petals while others have intricate, layered blooms. The blossoms have a central cluster of stamens and are surrounded by vibrant green foliage, creating a visually striking and diverse floral composition.

One of the old names for March’s full moon is the “Lenten Moon” because it rises during the time of #Lent, the forty days that come before #Easter in the Christian calendar. Hellebores that bloom around this time are called “Lenten roses” for the same reason. #FlowerFridayFamily
