How does a Trinity House Community Group work? Organized by a core team of parents and grandparents who collaborate with parish staff, families gather five times per year, usually on Saturday evenings every other month during the school year. After an early dinner and fellowship, volunteers engage kids with faith-based crafts, videos, or games while parents enjoy a short video and connect with each other during table discussions. Then, families reconvene for fellowship and dessert, while those with earlier bedtimes head home.
We'll kick off the Catalyst year at a happy hour on THUR, SEPT 5 at 5280 Burger (7032 Wood Hollow Drive). Catalyst will buy all the food and you buy your drinks. We're so back!

RCIA & Catholicism 101 - Registration Open for Adults
Near the shores of Galilee, Jesus’ words to his first disciples were “Come and See.” In that moment of encounter, something changed in the hearts of those men forever. Something in their lives and hearts finally made sense in meeting Jesus—a promise was fulfilled. If you, or someone you know is interested in taking a step further in your faith journey, please contact Amy Allert via email or find more information BELOW. Sessions begin the week of September 9th.
This is for adults who are:
• Unbaptized adults (RCIA)
• Baptized Catholics needing Confirmation (Catholicism 101)
• Baptized Christians of other denominations who want to explore the Catholic faith
• All Catholics wanting to refresh their understanding of the Catholic faith
Know what Catholics do well? Well, besides praying, it's BINGO!
All ages are welcome to celebrate fall and back to school with a Bingo Night! St. Theresa will provide the pizza and lemonade. We will have a Bake Sale for desserts. You bring your good luck charms and a fun attitude. Adult and kid prizes will be given. If you'd like to donate a prize, please bring to the church office, M-F 9-5.

In honor of the National Eucharistic Congress last week, for just 30 minutes, we’ll have songs and gentle meditation designed for children and families! Kids are always welcome at our First Friday Adoration, but we know it can feel a bit overwhelming for young ones, so we invite families to come together and share this beautiful experience of adoring the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Please remember, parents, your presence is necessary, desired, and essential – we can’t wait to see you there!
Please join Kimberly Sandoval and John Henderson on Friday, July 26th, at 7:30 PM for an evening of Spanish song and musical theatre with special guests Amber McIntire, Audrey Ballish, Willie Casper, and John Diaz.
The concert will include an exciting assortment of Spanish works by Obradors, Manuel De Falla, and Chapi followed by a whimsical journey through the beautiful and varied musical theatre eras. With selections from She Loves Me, The Light in the Piazza, and Waitress, you’re bound to hear some familiar favorites and discover some new ones, too!
