Welcome!
Welcome to Blessed Trinity Anglican Church and thank you for visiting our website. We are a church family humbled by all that God has done in our lives. We love, serve and share with others the hope that is found in our Lord Jesus. We believe that love is visible in what we do for others, it is true of our Lord Jesus and it is true of us.
We focus on growing into the fullness of the new life we are given in our Lord Jesus Christ. We meet every Sunday to Worship God, to be in His presence, to encourage one another, to hear God’s Word, to receive His grace through Holy Communion, and draw closer to God in our hearts, minds, and souls.
We are a parish of The Diocese of Mid-America in The Reformed Episcopal Church, a founding Jurisdiction of The Anglican Church in North America. We continue the worship tradition of the ancient Church by upholding Holy Scripture as God’s Word for us, today and always.
Please join us as we worship God together, Sundays at 10 a.m.
Sunday, January 18th is The Second Sunday After The Epiphany (John 2:1-11)
The message of the Epiphany season is the message of the coming and showing forth of God in our Lord Christ. For the Epiphany season, the general pattern is this: the Gospel lesson always reveals some facet of the showing forth of God in Christ; the corresponding Epistle lesson always reveals how that particular showing forth of God has also a showing forth in our life as Christians.
Today’s Gospel lesson is the very well-known story of the Lord Jesus at the wedding feast at Cana, in Galilee. It is the Lord Jesus’ first miracle, “the beginning of signs,” as St. John says. The miracles are always signs, symbolic acts, and in this case, the occasion itself, the wedding feast, is a sign. At that wedding feast, Lord Jesus changes water into wine, and that is a miracle, that is to say, a sign: a sign of God’s power to transform creation. It is the sign that in union with Christ, our life is to be changed; it is the sign of God’s power to give us new life in his spirit.
“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.“
Acts 2.42
