Newcomers

Welcome to Holy Trinity!  

Welcome to Holy Trinity. We’re glad YOU are here! Wherever you are on your journey of faith, no matter where you’ve been or where you’re going, YOU are welcome at Holy Trinity.

The Holy Trinity community cordially invites all newcomers and new members to a series of welcome gatherings. To RSVP for gatherings or for additional information, please contact The Rev. Mark Lile-King, Minister of Welcome, Engagement, and Pastoral Care, 336-272-6149 x273 or

When you visit, we invite you to fill out a visitor card and put it in the collection plate or give it to an usher so that we may further welcome you.

We want newcomers to feel welcome and to become as active at Holy Trinity as they would like. Newcomer events are held several times a year and are a good way to learn about worship, study, fellowship, and outreach at Holy Trinity. These events give newcomers a chance to talk with clergy and staff in a small, social setting.

First Sunday Name Tags
On the first Sunday of each month Holy Trinity members and visitors wear a name tag to services. It is a great way to get to know your neighbor, make a new friend, and welcome everyone to our vibrant community!  Name tags will be available outside All Saints Chapel for the 8 a.m. service and on the walk in front of Church for 9 and 11:15 a.m. services.
