We have a Mission for Adult Ministries here at Trinity. 

Showing all adults the amazing love of God and empowering them to search for truth, strive for justice, and live out God’s purpose for their life.

How do we seek to achieve that mission? 

By creating a welcoming and safe place where all adults can find community. We encourage discovery of personal faith practices, support transformation, and inspire action! 

Every Sunday from September to May, we have at least once Adult Faith Formation offering available after worship but the opportunities don’t end there… we have weekday small groups, adult & intergenerational fellowship opportunities, missions & justice work, and so much more!

Adult Faith Formation | Sundays from 11:30am-12:30pm

Join us each week starting September 14. Classes vary over the course of the year and may include everything from bible studies to DVD series to outside speakers. A few highlights for this program year include:

• Exploring the Enneagram: Understanding Yourself & Others Better
• The Deep End: Diving into the Gospels with Pastor Mike
• Keep Watch with Me: An Advent Reader for Peacemakers Book Study
• Unafraid by Adam Hamilton Book Study
• Courageous Conversations, Missions Speakers & More!

A detailed class schedule is released twice a year as a one-page flyer. If you have ideas about studies you’d like to try or topics you’d like addressed, contact Laura Johns, Director of Discipleship, at l.johns@grtumc.org.

Friends of Rohr at Trinity (FoRT) | Sunday & Thursday

Join folks who enjoy studying Father Richard Rohr’s writings! Two different groups gather each week to discuss our readings and be in fellowship together. We find we are “growing Deeper, loving Better, seeing God more Clearly (DBC).”

Our DBC group meets Sundays from 5:00pm-6:30pm (DBC) in the Fireside Room. Everything Belongs (EvB) meets Thursdays from 6:15pm-7:30pm so you can participate in the TNT: Thursday Nights at Trinity meal before joining us upstairs in the Library.
