Events & Announcements


With Thanksgiving under our belts and the arrival of December around the corner, also comes the Christmas countdown of the 25 days of Christmas! Although you may have started your planning before then, December 1st seems like it officially gives the okay to begin the celebrations!

No other season quite brings the excitement and anticipation like Christmas does. This is all the more reason for believers in Christ to use these 25 days of Christmas to place our focus on Him! Here is a reading plan that you can do on your own or as a family to prepare for the real reason for this amazing season!

Night of Prayer 

As we enter into a season of gratitude and thankfulness, may we always remember the One in whom all blessings flow. Trinity is great because our God is great and His faithfulness is evident in all aspects of our school. On December 12th, we are inviting you to join us for a special self-guided prayer walk across the Trinity campus. Prayer stations will be located in areas with specific prayer needs. We will pray for our GoWeek mission trips, the faculty and staff, our athletes and students, even our community at large. We will begin the evening at 6:00pm on the Trinity football field with a corporate prayer and instructions. We hope that you will link arms with us on this special night.

TeenStreet Local GO Week!

 

TeenStreet is an international community of young Jesus followers.

We partner with churches around the world to motivate, equip and walk alongside Christian teens to have a real relationship with Jesus and reflect Him daily in their world.

In all our events- teens will have fun, go deep, and be bold! They will be encouraged to live life fully.  Whether at home, work, or school — they will see that they are uniquely made to fully participate in God's Kingdom story.

 For Local GO Week 2023, teens will interact around our global theme for the year of ‘Seen.’  They will dig into Daniel’s story in the Old Testament and participate in worship, workshops, a United Nations refugee simulation, and a field trip to Clarkston, GA.  They will hear stories from refugees and nonprofits in the most diverse square mile in America!

8:00 AM – 1:00 PM January 3, 4, & 5 (the building will be open from 7:30pm to 3:30pm for those that need to be dropped off early or cannot be picked up at 1pm). Students may purchase a lunch from SAGE or will need to bring a sack lunch - students will not be permitted to go off campus during this event  *GO Week is not optional, this is a built in part of our academic calendar. Students are expected to participate during this school week by attending a trip or staying local.  Students that do not participate will be counted as absent.
