Dear Friends of Trinity Church,
Trinity is blessed with an amazing, gifted staff. They make the administrative life of the church happen, they care for our building, and they develop and implement programming for our parish. On Sunday, June 2, we will say farewell to two staff members who have been faithful and stalwart members of our staff through challenging times.
Emily Pruszinski led our family ministries through the challenges of COVID, caring for our families through online activities and re-invigoring our youth group even as they met on Zoom in the height of the pandemic. She also has been a key part of our Vacation Bible School program that we share with other churches. Connor Fluharty led Trinity’s music program through one of the most difficult situations possible. He stepped in to provide steady leadership when it was needed the most, and for that we will always be grateful.
We would like to acknowledge their faithful service with a special monetary gift. If you would like to contribute, you may send a check marked “Connor and Emily” to Lily at the parish office, or donate online at trinityprinceton.org/giving. If you give online, make sure to include the purpose of your gift in the appropriate box on the form. Please send in your gifts by Wednesday, May 29.
We hope you will join us at church to thank them in person on June 2, which will also be Choir Sunday and our Parish Picnic. See you then!
Yours faithfully in Christ,
Kara Slade David Schneider
Associate Rector Senior Warden
In Gratitude: Remember
Happy Derby Day from Fr. Paul!
Rogation Procession
Join us for the annual Rogation Procession this Sunday after the 10:30 service. We will gather at the front doors outside the narthex and process around the block to offer prayers for our neighbors and to celebrate the goodness of God’s creation.

Newcomer's Forum
Sunday, May 19, 9:30 – 10:15 am
Pierce Hall
The Newcomers Forum is a great way to meet vestry members, clergy and fellow newcomers while enjoying bagels and coffee. There will be a couple of welcoming speeches but mostly this is a time to talk to new and longtime members of the parish and to meet your clergy. Pierce Hall is the main meeting room in the parish building, which is attached to the church. There is no need to register for this event.
Opportunities for Participation in Worship
Calling all instrumentalists! During the summer, we will have opportunities for those in our congregation who play musical instruments to offer preludes and/or offertories for services. If you play an instrument and would like to share your talents, please sign up on the digital form at this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NVTEWapN2oon5_D87IlAvv_wJuyNyf48_eloRrPT1XQ/edit?usp=sharing or on the paper sign-up in the narthex or at the front desk. Thank you!
