Photo Directory 2024: This year, to celebrate the 120th Anniversary of being a community of faith in Port Coquitlam, Trinity is planning to publish a pictorial directory...not the expensive, fancy, and lengthy process of years past. Instead we’ll be using three talented photographers at hand: Dave, Judy, and Syd.
Last chance, Sunday March 17: (There will be no photos this Sunday!) 1st - make any changes to your information on the paper copy of the directory. 2nd - get your photo (head & shoulders) taken by one of the designated photographers. Deadline for sending digital photos to Zoe at the office: Tuesday, March 19.

One Day's Pay: During Lent we have a practice of giving One Day’s Pay as a special offering. Each person or household decides what One Day’s Pay will be for them. This is a special offering. 60% of monies raised go to a project “beyond our doors”. 40% of monies raised go to a project within Trinity. This year 60% will go to the Benevolent Fund for support of others and 40% will go to the Operating Fund of Trinity. Envelopes of your One Day’s Pay offering are available on the Welcome Table each Sunday or from the office. Thank you for your support.
