Today we celebrate Music Appreciation Sunday in the in-person service.  For this online service we are using a service prepared by the staff of the California-Pacific Annual Conference for use on the last Sunday of June, or whenever it was needed by local churches. In honor of Music Appreciation before watching the service we invite you to click this link to the tribute video that Kasey made for Barbara Hoff. We also invite you to consider supporting Trinity UMC by clicking this Online Giving Link or sending a check to the church.

Theme: Called to a new place Genesis 12:1-9

To answer God’s call is to be moved to a new place. Sometimes that place is a new space physically as in the story of Abram. Notably in the story Abram recognizes the new spaces God leads him to as sacred. In each location where he stops, he builds an altar to the Lord recognizing God’s connection with both his journey and the place where for a time he encounters God. In every case, to answer God’s call is to be moved to a new place spiritually. As the Spirit of God in the creation story shows, every time the Spirit of God calls us forth in creation, new life is created. As we move out of this COVID pandemic, or as we move into a new city and congregation, God is with us calling forth new life.
