This Sunday: November 1st is traditionally called All Saints Day in the church. Our service this Sunday is a reminder of the unity of the Church. Believers on earth and believers in heaven are united through the death and resurrection of Jesus, the Lamb of God. We are also reminded that Scripture calls us saints. We are saints not because there is something special in and of ourselves, but because God made us saints through faith in Jesus Christ. Join us for worship! Children’s Sunday School and Adult Bible Study will follow.
Time Change: Don’t forget to turn back your clock this Saturday evening, October 31.
We have returned to in-person worship at Trinity Elementary School: 2209 Duck Slough Blvd, Trinity, 34655. Join us for worship at 10:00 AM. Bible Study and Children’s Sunday School will follow worship.
On Sunday morning you can find a pre-recorded service here.
On Sunday morning you can worship with us on Facebook Live.
Reminder: Face Coverings are required during worship (with the exception of ages two and under).
Our current guidelines for gathering are still in place for public worship:
- Current Pasco County Guidelines require face coverings during worship. Masks are available at worship if you do not have a mask.
- Our worship team will help to arrange seating to promote social distancing. The Cafetorium at Trinity Elementary School allows for plenty of space to social distance.
- We ask that those who are sick, high risk, or have been exposed to COVID-19 within the last 14 days not gather for worship at this time. Online services will continue to be made available.
- Offering plates and guest registers will not be passed. You can place your offering in the basket provided on your way in or out of worship. We encourage setting up giving online or by text.
Inviting New Movers – Saturday, November 14, 9:30 am
Each month there are around 150 news family units who are moving into the Trinity area. Many of these souls may be looking for a new church home. Our leadership team is looking to welcome and invite these families to be part of Peace Lutheran Church. Consider joining a team that will go out once each month to welcome new movers to the area. Commitment would include 2-3 hours a month either on a weekday evening or Saturday morning. You might make 10-20 visits each month, simply dropping off a pre-packaged gift baggie with church information. You can make visits in pairs. Learn more at a training on Saturday, November 14, 9:30 am @ Longleaf Office, 3030 Starkey Blvd., Trinity, 34655.
Thank You: A heartfelt “Thank you” to all who contributed toward the Pastor Appreciation gift I received last weekend. It was a surprise and a very kind gesture.

To God be the Glory,
Pastor Schwartz
