Visiting Ministries

Trinity Parish offers a range of ministries to support parishioners at every stage of life. Monthly phone check-ins maintain connections with those unable to attend services, while hospital visitation teams provide spiritual support at Flagler Hospital. Lay Eucharistic Visitors bring communion to isolated parishioners, fostering spiritual connection. In times of need, such as nearing death, Trinity Church offers ministration and last rites promptly through their online form at trinitysta.org/care. These ministries reflect Trinity Church’s commitment to caring for its community with compassion and support.

Funerals

One of the characteristics of an Episcopal or Anglican Church is that you will often see graves inside the church or on the church grounds. When we speak of the Church, we mean both the church militant (those who are alive right now) and the church triumphant (those who have died and ended their earthly race). When you worship in an Episcopal Church you are literally and tangibly in the presence of the whole Church.

A funeral in the church building is a sign that, even though death seems to divide us from those we love, the Body of Christ is never divided. As members of Christ’s body, we are still connected with those we love but see no longer. Therefore, a funeral in the church building foreshadows that day when we will be reunited with the entirety of the Body of Christ in the presence of God.
