At Trinity, we celebrate God’s gift of music as a vehicle for the Word. Members share their varying gifts of time and talent, offering music to God’s glory. We rejoice in this ministry as it enhances our worship experience, supports the work of the people, and carries the message of God’s redeeming love to the world.
